I think there is a huge amount of information that Hummer, China and GM will have to provide to the public before folks spend 60-70 grand on a new H2. Way too many unknowns at this stage of the game. I sure hope is all works out and Hummer comes back stronger and better than ever!!

Warranty will be provided by HUMMER, which will become its own entity w/ the financial backing of a Chinese company. Instead of answering to GM's board of directors and the U.S. government, HUMMER will answer to itself.
HUMMER dealers will be where warranty work is completed. Its possible that HUMMER may contract other service centers in areas that HUMMER dealers have closed - but that probably won't be for some time.
HUMMER will undoubtedly source many parts from GM in the near-term, but that connection will ultimately be phased out when new models come to the market. GM doesn't produce the products themselves, so it wouldn't make sense to pay them to be the middle man.
