Well, you can read a lot about problems people have with their H3 on this board. But please let's not forget that people who actually do have problems with their H3 come to this board (to my understanding the biggest H3 community on the web) to have their problems solved... or at least to get help from competent people like e.g. f5fstop.

People who do not have any problems whatsoever with their H3 (like me) usually do not post that often and remain happily silent in the background. So our view on the subject of having trouble with the H3 _must_ be somewhat biased.

So I thought I get up this poll to get some understanding whether H3 owners are happy with the car. The outcome of the poll might still be a little bit biased, since I understand that most of the community members here are enthusiasts anyway... But it should help to clear the big picture a little.

bump...

I have had more problems with my BMW's then the H3. Pretty good for first year out (so far). I got a new Mustang and sold it because I didn't have time to fix it (free of course). New air bags, transmission, 2 new exhaust, rattles, yuck. I am happy with the H3 and considering it is new I think little problems are little minor issues.

No problems at all here

I would consider the rear-end a problem; classifying it as minor or major, I guess depends on the inconvenience, time down, etc. That being said, I love the truck, and can't wait to get it back.

I am as happy as I could be in stock form - although, I would be bawls to the wall happy for a new LS7 7.0L 427 V8 to be avail in a lil'ole H3. =)

But thats a pipe dream and I am happy as I can be with my down to earth H3 as it is.

As for the rearend, sure it's an inconvenience, but it's being fixed properly. We should all be greatful for that.

So... 19 people with absolutely no problems (59%), 11 ppl with minor issues (34%) and only two guys with major issues.

Not too bad for a newly introduced model IMO.

We have had 4 h3 in for service so far with a horrible rattle in the right front at highway speeds. Other then that nothing but little routine things here or there. It seems they shook out alot of the problems with the Colorado before the H3 dropped.

What was the fix for that rattle? We have it in the DR SD front.

No problems and it has been driven 1100 miles since 08/18. I couldn't be happier, unless of course, they figured out a way to make it go without using gasoline.

No problems what so ever here...and I drive mine as a daily commuter too.

I have a rattle when I hard accelerate in
the passenger side front near the Air Intake. Not sure where exactly the rattle is coming from. I will go to dealer to have this thing resolved. I'm very disappointed with GM quality though.

And on the opposite end of the spectrum, I'm really pleased with GM quality so far. Not a problem with mine(knock wood), other than maybe the minor paint (weld) spot on the roof. Runs great, and everything's tight.

Only a tire vibration at highway speed - due to go in for a fix when I can get out of it for a few hours. Have over 1400 miles - loving it...!!!

I love my H3 I had to trade my 2003 chevy Zr2 because of on going probs over and over with my zr2 I had so much money in it, it had 5"lift3" body 35" tires and kenwood dvd weld rims had to trade with 17k on it with 2nd motor put in it Well All in all I now have a Blk H3 and thats what i have to be proud of now!!! bye bye Zr2
