Default Re: Has anyone else had to have the entire head replaced? I smell recall.

I like my H3 too. It's my first GM vehicle but not my first US made vehicle.

Today is the first I have heard of people having it (rough idle, check engine light, and engine misfire code) happen a second time and this worries me about the fix.

If it is a recall issue they should let us know ASAP and treat all H3 owners the same and offer an extended warranty and guarantee the head replacement.

Replacing a cylinder head isn't rocket science and it shouldn't take a week to complete the job. I don't want them to rush it but a week is too long. I also worry about non-head related complications after the head replacement like oil leaks, timing chain issues, camshaft etc.

I bought a new vehicle to avoid this kind of stuff and never thought I'd have a head replacement at this time!
