Ok took the Hummer out for a little night ride. Something in the steering broke. I cannot steer the Hummer. It is about 1/2 mile from the road in some verrry slippery gummy mud. Not stuck, just cannot steer to get out.
Need some one with Mud tires to drag me to the street.
Should let it sit through Thanksgiving and will try to get it on Friday.
Let me know if you are interested in getting real muddy and dragging me out to the street.

Got it Home. Sadly a Jeep had to pull me. Now I guess he earned his Hummer Recovery sticker.

This smells like a jeep owner turned saboteur might have had their hand in it....
:giggling:
Prime suspect = the Jeep owner that gave you the tow!

Called dealership; Service advisor stated "the tech has looked at it but still does not have a diagnosis"
So I asked "what do you mean no diagnosis? He can't tell what is wrong?"
Then I asked "did he put it on the rack?" "no"
"Did he pull the skid plates?" NO
"Then what do you mean he looked at it?" Well he walked buy and looked under it
Damn I Lost it!! Just tell me what is going on, Don't BS me with that crap we haven't got a diagnosis yet. Say the F'ing truth, we didin't do **** yet!!!
Oh well I guess it will be next week now, FCK!!! :raar:
I think it is the FabTech Pitman Arm, guess we'll have to wait and see. :crying:

That's BS when the dealers pull that crap!!!!
NOw, you do know that those Fab TEch Pitman arms were all recalled. Don;t you? And they were replacing not only the parts, but covering labor. IF that's what it was, than I would be calling into Fabtech to see if you can get help on it...esp. sinc eyou will have a tow bill in there as well.. Good luck, keep us all posted.
