giant piece of junk - 2006 Hummer H3
By lodown - June 7 - 2:44 amBought this pre-owned at 5 years old. Conveniently everything started going down the drain at that point. Stupid things would break like the door... couldnt open the driver door from the inside. Sunroof leaks, passenger will randomly get quite soaked. It seemed like every week something would go wrong. Key fob just doesnt work... tried changing the battery..nothing. One day I tried to go to work and the truck locked me in park! Couldnt move the vehicle! Extremely unreliable. One day hazard lights just turned on its own and wouldnt turn off. Cant even drive up hills without a hard time. No interior lights that turn on when door opens - stupid. Poor handling.

Nothing - 2006 Hummer H3
By mariakh@nisswa.net - May 5 - 5:42 pmI bought on 3-17-2010 we had it for 2 weeks gas mileage is horrible, it wore one tire very bad had to go back in to check out, then one week ago the wiring harness burned up and we ended up paying for some of it, also the tire I had to pay for half of it. I personally think its a recall?

Sorry I Bought H3 - 2006 Hummer H3
By Roger - February 16 - 9:13 pmI bought my Hummer on a Saturday and it was in the shop the following Thursday. Countless electrical problems from traction control sensors to interior lights illuminating when the brakes were applied. The truck has been towed in to the dealership 5 times because it fails to start. Its been in the shop over 22 days and the dealer cant determine what causes the problem.We just experienced our first significant snow fall here in NJ and my H3 was in the shop. I am in the process of filing for relief under NJ Lemon Law. GMs response has been luke warm at best. Bottom line not a vehicle I would recommend, not even to my worst enemy

Poor Front End - 2006 Hummer H3
By bary - August 22 - 2:22 pmI got an H3 2 weeks ago and it had a bad vibration...The selling dealer exchanged it for another H3...This one has an alignment problem that the dealer says it cannot fully remedy because of a problem in the rear. So now Im 2 for 2 with disappointment...I hope GM takes this lemon back

Orange Peel Baby! - 2006 Hummer H3
By wooddorker - December 15 - 1:20 pmTwo points stick in my mind, a total lack of power and poor QC. The Black H3 I drove couldnt get out of its own way and had heavy orange peel all over the body. Think of what anti-chip coating, which is normally applied to lower body panels looks like, now think of a whole vehicle that looks like it was painted with a roller. All of the in stock units had the same problem. Naturally, the dealer didnt seem to see a problem. The versions I looked at also had misaligned body and interior panels reminding me of a Cavalier. The H1s & 2s nearby did not look anywhere near as bad. A neat vehicle on paper, its too bad it got executed the way it did. Look closely before you b

needs more power - 2006 Hummer H3
By tennessee - March 3 - 1:33 pmthe 5 cylinder engine is way under powered especialy when passing, this is due in most part to the 4700 lbs that it weighs which is almost as much as a 2wd nissan titan truck 2wd, the interior is very bland, and the abillity to shift between 2 and 4wd is not an option, for its size it feels very top heavy while cornering, this will be a good grocery getter , remember jeep liberty.
