The HVAC blower motor resistor connector located under the glove box was burnt, the red plastic on the harness was melted. The reason I became aware of this is because the blower quit working. I looked this up online and found it is a common issue. I feel anytime you have the potential for a fire there should be a recall. I feel it is fair to assume the new resistor and wiring harness will do the same thing since it is the exact same design.

I have a 2007 H3 Hummer with 81000 miles. This past summer I got into my truck and put on my air conditioning on high. Nothing came out of the vents. Blower motor wouldn't even move. I did some research on the topic and it all lead to a burnt out blower motor resister. I had purchased a new one and replaced it to find out that there was a small fire in the plug from it getting to hot. This is a common problem with the H3. I talked to GM safety and they won't do anything and bout it because it's out of warranty due to age and miles. There is no reason for this not to be a recall issue. No blower motor means no defrost on your windshield. Due to cold winters in New York you need the defrost. Now my trucks blower motor works when it wants to due to faulty wire harness in truck. I have pictures of the plug and old resister. Thank you

My son was driving his 2007 Hummer H3 when it caught on fire. It was an electrical fire started on the passenger side in the dash. He didn't know it was on fire until he got out of the car to go into a restaurant. He didn't even smell anything burning and had only been driving around 5 minutes. People were pointing at his car telling him it was on fire. The local fire department got to him in 3-4 minutes. The Hummer H3 was totaled out because of the fire. The car had approximately 64,000 miles on it and was in excellent condition.

Just had my Hummer in 2 weeks ago at the GM dealership to have the ignition switch replaced. Had been dealing with it stranding me and my kids for 10 minute periods long enough. ( sometimes longer) while it was in there we also had to get the radiator replaced due to it being cracked. Now 2 weeks later my check engine light and traction light have come on. The traction light saying service sab system. After reading all the Hummer problems I can not believe that there was not a recall on both the ignition switch and radiator. The ignition switch being faulty put me and my kids in situations in places for long periods of time that were not safe and at times we were very cold since we can have below zero weather in Colorado. The ignition not recognizing the key causing the anti theft system to activate is recall issue and GM you should be taking responsibility for this!!

Was driving in a small town and the vehicle just lost all power with no warning. It cost me over $600 to get repaired and I'm thankful I was not on the highway going 60 or 70 and I'm thankful there was no vehicles behind me. Also the key won't come out of the ignition after I drive it for a while and this wears down my battery and I have to get a jump. Has there been any recalls or other complaints about these problems.

Fan blower resistor burnt up and melted wiring harness electrical seat button that controls position and heat turns on due to the side plastic seat molding that flexes when you sit in the seat.

My car began show the passlock disabling system light and then failing to start. After starting, it would then show the air bag warning lights for a period that might be several minutes to several days before going out again. This cycle happened at random times disabling the auto without warning and in some dangerous situations. It is a well known and publicized problem that GM has chosen to ignore. I have solved the problem by having passlock disabled and ignoring the air bag warning light with the assumption it is a false warning. These recent events have me reconsidering that action, but the cost of having the problem rectified would be more than I could afford.

Here are multiple issues well documented across the internet of Hummer having and issue with these resistors, as well as Chevy colorados. My blower quit a few months ago, and the resistors and wiring harness are melted to the point of charring! the NHTSA needs to investigate this or are you waiting for an actual fire to cause GM to fix this issue?

The anti-theft passlock system is faulty and will not let me start my car. It has happened twice since I got the car in December of last year. Going on-line to see what to do about it made me aware of the overwhelming amount of GM car owners that this has affected. Some being stranded for hours and days of not being able to start their cars due to the faulty passlock system. It is happening to all makes and models of GM cars. I called GM and they weren't interested in doing anything about the problem unless you force them to. Please check into this and help those of us who get stranded in places (sometimes scary places) because our car won't start. Thank you.

I was in a parking lot, I started the vehicle and turned the air conditioner on. It worked but suddenly stopped blowing air. I took it in and it was diagnosed as the blower motor resistor had gone out. I had it replaced only to have the same thing happen again one week later but this time I smelled something burning. The wiring had burned going to the resistor. The technician informed me that this happens often with these vehicles and he doesn't understand why there isn't a recall. After researching the problem, I found that this is a common and potentially very dangerous problem with the Hummer H3. There needs to be an investigation and recall so that no one gets hurt. If I had a passenger in my vehicle at the time of this incident, they would have received burns on their feet from the wiring malfunction and burning. I again am having to pay to get this corrected.
