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

Getting Head!

My check engine light has come on and later gone off several times. Once in cold weather in low range and another going up steep hills in low range and recently in town but always went off. I was in De-Nile hoping it wasn't the dread head fix problem.

The 3rd time my check engine light came on, engine was idling rough, I called onstar from my driveway and they said it was an engine misfire,

I took it to the dealer on Monday and got a free Caddy loan for the day. The dealer said it needed a head replacement.


They ordered the head (2-3 week back log) and said I can dive the truck until the parts get in. The back log tells me this must be happening quite often

I said will a new head fix the problem and the service manager said yes.


I need to check into getting the warranty extended by GM Hummer.
I have 9500 miles on it also with w/ 2 oil changes.
