When I crank my Hummer H3 up on cold mornings it dont start, sometimes it starts and then cuts off on warm days no problem.is there a recall on this product it seems that there are many complaints on this issue.

The vehicle will turn over, battery is fine, but the engine will not start, due to the on-board security system thinking that the vehicle is being stolen. This frequent problem has been reported to the nhtsb numerous times and to GM with no results. GM customer service claims that they have never heard of this problem, but if you google: 2006 hummer3 starting problems, you will see a long list of exactly the same complaints. This situation should warrant a recall and repair at GM's expense. The current remedy is to sit and wait 10 minutes until the security system resets and then the vehicle can be started. This condition occurs without warning and is not covered at all in the owners manual.

The contact owns a 2006 Hummer H3. While driving 70 mph, the vehicle independently decelerated to 30 mph. The stability tracking system, check engine, and a third indicator all illuminated. The failure recurred multiple times. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the wires over the engine failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The vehicle was included in NHTSA campaign number: 15V421000 (visibility). The approximate failure mileage was 50,000.

Own Hummer H3 2006. Randomly, two lights will show up: Traction and transfer case lights. 6 lines of error code: Traction, failure, reduced, power, stab sys, service. When this happens, the car can be driven only around 40 mile per hour which is very dangerous on free way. It only happens randomly. Usually after rain. But the dealership said they cannot reproduce the problem. Called GM, they told me they cannot do anything although they say there is an investigation and there might be future recall.
