12. ???????
11. Head no good (not fixed yet)
10. 4-wheel drive high lock button stuck in
9. Amplifier replaced because of static noise
8. Radio replaced (2nd time) because of static noise
7. Plastic pillar trim cracked
6. Jack replaced recall
5. Battery died around 12,000 miles
4. Radio software reinstalled because they didn't do it right when replacing the radio
3. Radio replaced (1st time) because CD's stuck inside
2. Windshield washer pump replaced recall
1. Transfer Case not filled with additional fluid before delivery. Only found out about it myself on this website. Did the fill myself only to discover that it took almost a quart just to get it up to the plug level. Then added the extra fluid.

sorry about the issues you are having.
1) heard about a few early builds that had a transfer case fluid issue. Yup, getting the kinks out on the new model.
2) Yup, recall.
3) SOunds like bad radio.
4)? bad service dept?
5) mine dies around that time cuz it sat on the lot for 9 months before being sold. Mine replaced no charge. I new it might happen on mine cuz I knew it sat for a long while.
6) yup, recall.
7) I heard about this. not sure if its wide spread issue.
8 & 9) Im thinking you have a wiring issue, ground issue and thats where the static comes from.
10) no idea
11) Yup, again, a few early builds have this issue. I have 30K on mine and am waiting for the head to go.

I didnt buy the truck thinking it had the best build quality, I bought it cuz I thought it fit all my needs and looked great.

Im not saying you dont have a case, these all added together are a pain in the ass. Is GM at least, standing up and taken care of the issues as they come up? I hope so.

Sure, you could of bought an FJ, 4Runner, Pilot, Element, but none of em look as cool as the H3 imho.
