My Aug Road Trip With 06 H3 (what a POS)
So I have done a few short trips in my 06 H3 (4-8 hours) over the last year of owning it with no real problems to speak of. This Aug me the wife and the two kids (ages 2 & 8) did a real trip from WY to New England. 1800 miles each way over 16 days It was a 3 day drive each way. My A/C went out when I got to western mass and I brought it in and they said it was a bad resister and a burnt wiring harness. The parts are back ordered across the country. I called about 4 or 5 different dealerships and no one could get the parts. When I was filling up is was checking all the fluids and I see the power steering was very low? its leaking from the hoses? next, a couple of days later I am getting the red light on the on-start status indicator and some times the phone nor onstar wont work. I am also occasionally getting a stability control failure on the dash maybe 3 out of 7 times when I start the h3. Now to top it off When I go over a bump I here a rattle noise front the back? The rear cargo door is loose. Now to really piss me and the family off I have to drive back to WY 1800 miles with no AC it hit 102? the God damn H3 is just less the one year old with 23,000 on it and I am having this many problems? What a POS, I am now back in WY waiting for the parts to come in to my dealership in Denver (about 110 miles away) so I can get my rig fixed? AHhhhhhh
