So the dealer said the lurching/lugging was present in their three loaner H3's also and therefore is considered normal. And since the COMPUTER could find nothing (even though the tech felt the shuddering), it was obviously OK per GM warranty process - what ever happened to good old fashioned seat of the pants repair?

So it is becoming more and more noticeable, and I now dread driving my H3 vs the joy I had for the first 5000 miles.

And unfortunately I still have 31 months to go on my lease.

I guess I will try the GM appeal process, but eventually will most likely have to look into buying my H3 out of the lease and selling it for a huge loss.

I knew I should have bought a GX470. Never have problems with Toyota/Lexus, but I wanted to be patriotic and buy American. Boy what a sucker I was.....
