Got 10 miles into the hour drive home my vehicle drive, had to have it flat bedded to the dealer $75. Today bill for $500.00 for new alternator. Heard that the 3 participating dealers have already had 5 H3 and 1 H2 in with same problem because the event hosts took us through too deep of water, and of course not under warranty!
Hey, I'm all up for fun and I know I signed a disclaimer \ waiver but lets get real. Isn't the REAL intent of that if I slide into a tree or do something wrong and damage my vehicle. Not when I am in the middle of one way line of 30 trucks going through a trail and they (a HUMMER EVENT) are telling me to cross this water it is OK?? If I was the only truck I wouldn't be complaining too much, but 5-6 trucks on Monday AM since Saturday, GM get real? Your guys messed up big time, scouted in appropriate trails too deep for your vehicles and now you don't want to admit it!
Fix the problem!! If I would have slammed \ slid into a tree I would have paid to fix it out of my pocket no complaints...but this...UNFAIR! I couldn't have turned around if I wanted to.
I am ticked off!

Was the Hummer Happening sponsored by GM or the dealers? Most are dealer sponsored, so stop blaming GM. If GM sponsored it, blame GM.
I would contact the dealer and find the other five vehicle owners and write a serious letter to the sponsoring dealers. If that didn't work, sue 'em in small claims court. I would be mad too, but I would make sure I blame the right entitiy first.
If GM actually sponsored the event and not the dealers, contact GM customer assistance and bitch at them.
