2005 HUMMER H2 Electrical System Problems

The contact owns a 2005 Hummer H2. The contact stated that while parking in the mountains, the vehicle was in the park position, and it unexpectedly rolled and stopped at a boulder. There were no warning lights illuminated. The door hit the driver and knocked him to the ground, and he sustained an injury to his head, but medical attention was not provided. Another person on an ATV provided a jump start, but the vehicle failed to restart. The contact walked several miles to get assistance. The contact was able to view YouTube and replace the part. The contact stated that the transmission shifter cable had failed. There was a hole in the shaft connected to the transmission to the C clip. The local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 111,400.

CAR WILL NOT START DUE TO PASS-LOCK OR OTHER MALFUNCTION COMPONENT. MUST TRY AND FAIL AND THEN WAIT FOR CAR TO 'RE-SET' EACH AND EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS TRIED TO BE STARTED. AFTER 10 MINUTES THE CAR'S ENGINE COMPLETELY KILLS, EVEN IF CAR IS IN MOTION. REPROGRAMMED KEYS AND THIS ONLY WORKED FOR A WEEK. NOW EACH AND EVERY DOOR LOCK, BACK HATCH LOCK, ETC... HAS FAILED. THE HATCH IS LOCKED CLOSED AND THE DOORS WILL ONLY UNLOCK OR LOCK PHYSICALLY WITH YOUR HAND. THE SPEEDOMETER FAILS INTERMITTENTLY, ALONG WITH OTHER GAUGES WORKING ONLY SOMETIMES.

IN THE MIDST OF TRAVELING ON VACATION, THE SPEEDOMETER AND MANY OF THE OTHER DASH COMPONENTS JUST QUIT WORKING. I HAD TO RELY SOLELY ON THE PORTABLE GPS TO DETERMINE THE SPEED THAT I WAS GOING. THIS IS UNSAFE, AND THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT HUMMER MOST CERTAINLY NEEDS TO CORRECT.

Mileage: 12,000

STARTING IN OCTOBER 2013 MY SPEEDOMETER HAS NOT FUNCTIONED PROPERLY. IT DOES NOT DISPLAY THE CORRECT SPEED NO MATTER HOW FAST OR SLOW YOU ARE GOING. IT IS EITHER STUCK AT 0 OR BOTTOMS OUT OVER 120. I HAVE NO IDEA HOW FAST I AM DRIVING UNLESS I USE MY PORTABLE GPS THAT SHOWS SPEED. IF IT WASN'T FOR MY GPS THEN I COULD GET INTO AN ACCIDENT OR GET A TICKET BECAUSE I WOULD NOT KNOW HOW FAST I AM GOING. THIS IS A MANUFACTURE DEFECT AS I AM NOT THE ONLY HUMMER OWNER WITH THIS ISSUE. GM NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM ASAP. *TR

DRIVING HOME I BEGAN TO SMELL AND ELECTRICAL BURNING SMELL. IT BEGAN VERY QUICKLY AND CAME AND WENT FOR ABOUT 2 MILES. I PULLED OVER AND LOOKED AND COULD NOT SEE SMOKE OR FIRE SO I CONTINUED HOME. I DROVE THE REMAINING 4 MILES TO MY HOME AND IMMEDIATELY GOT MY HUSBAND TO CHECK AS THE CAB HAD FILLED WITH THE SMELL OF AN ELECTRICAL FIRE. HE LOCATED THE AREA THE SMELL WAS STRONGEST AND THEN WATCHED AS SMOKE CAME OUT. HE UNBOLTED THE WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID TANK AND THE MOTOR ON BOTTOM HAD ACTUALLY BURNED, MELTED AND WAS ON THE VERGE OF CAUSING SOME SERIOUS DAMAGE. THE WIPERS WERE NOT BEING USED AND HAD NOT BEEN TOUCHED. THIS VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH A HEATER FOR THE FLUID. *TR

Mileage: 176,000

WIPERS STOPPED ON THE FREEWAY. RAINING REALLY HARD. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER AND TACHOMETER IN MY VEHICLE GET STUCK AT ANY SPEED. BOTH METERS EITHER MAX OUT OR DROP TO ZERO AT NUMEROUS SPEEDS. AT SLOW SPEEDS THIS PROBLEMS IS NOT A MAJOR ISSUE, BUT AT SPEEDS ABOVE 45 MPH THE PROBLEM CREATES A DANGEROUS SITUATION. WHEN PULLING A TRAILER ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH THE SPEEDOMETER HAS DROPPED TO ZERO. THIS CREATES A DANGEROUS SITUATION AN INABILITY TO DETERMINE REQUIRED SPEEDS ON DIFFERENT SECTIONS OF THE HIGHWAY. A PROBLEM SUCH AS THIS ONE SHOULD ONLY OCCUR IN A VEHICLE 25 OR 30 YEARS OLD AND NOT 6 YRS OLD. IT'S CLEAR THAT THIS IS A FACTORY DEFECT AND AN ALERT SHOULD BE ISSUED FOR FACTORY REPAIR OF THIS DEFECT. THANK YOU *TR

MY 2005 H2 HUMMER SPEEDOMETER GETS STUCK ,I HAVE SEEN OVER THE PAST WEEK THAT IT GETS STUCK EVERY DAY AND I CANT TELL HOW FAST IM GOING THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I HAVE LOOKED ON THE WEB AND HAVE SEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME REASON. *TR

THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ON THE VEHICLE WILL AT FIRST WORK INTERMITTENTLY, GOING ON AND OFF AT THEIR OWN WILL. THEN THE WINDSHIELD WASHER PUMP WILL TURN ON WITHOUT WARNING, DISCHARGING ALL THE WASHER FLUID ONTO THE WINDSHIELD. THE PUMP WILL CONTINUE TO PUMP, EVEN WITH THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF. THIS CAN ONLY BE REMEDIED WITH THE DISCONNECTION OF THE BATTERY. THE WIPERS WILL THEN NOT WORK. THIS CAN OCCUR AT ANY MOMENT, BEING VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

WHEN DRIVING FOR A LONG DISTANCE (SEVERAL HOURS ) THE SPEEDOMETER ALL OF A SUDDEN DROPS TO 5MPH OR SO EVEN THOUGH I AM DRIVING AT 65 MPH. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE NOW IN THE LAST MONTH ON MY 2005 HUMMER H2. THE SPEEDOMETER ONLY CORRECTS AFTER I STOP AND TURN OFF THE ENGINE.*TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HUMMER H2. THE CONTACT STARTED THE IGNITION, SUDDENLY THE REAR WINDSHIELD WASHER DISPENSED FLUID WITHOUT ACTIVATION.

THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED AT THIS TIME. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

I STARTED MY VEHICLE 4 DAYS AGO AND THE SPEEDOMETER AND GAUGES WERE FROZEN AND DID NOT OPERATE AT ALL. I DROVE TO THE STORE AND THE GAUGE REMAINED AT 0 THE ENTIRE TIME. WHEN YOU ACCELERATE THE SPEEDOMETER DOES NOT MOVE FROM 0 MPH. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON AND THERE WAS NO CHANGE. YESTERDAY WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE THE GAUGE WOULD ONLY MOVE BETWEEN 30-50 MPH. TODAY WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE IT IS FROZEN AT 120 MPH AND THE KHM(?) DOES NOT MOVE PAST 1.WHEN I ACCELERATE NEITHER OF THE TWO GAUGES ARE FUNCTIONING. I HAVE YET TO REPAIR IT BC IT HAS HAPPENED JUST A FEW DAYS AGO BUT I WAS TOLD THAT I AM LOOKING AT A VERY LARGE REPAIR COST TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE DASHBOARD CLUSTER. THE SAME THING HAPPENED IN MY 2003 MODEL AND I SOLD THE VEHICLE. AS WELL THE REAR SUSPENSION IS LOWERING ON ITS OWN TO THE LOWEST POSITION AND DOES NOT GO BACK TO THE NORMAL HEIGHT. I HAVE TO PUSH THE BUTTON ON THE INTERIOR. WHEN I RETURN TO THE VEHICLE THE FOLLOWING MORNING THE REAR SUSPENSION HAS DROPPED DOWN AGAIN. *TR
