Yes I went to ramp hummer,lucas the service manager is a very nice guy,but still says noise is normal no fix? The field rep backed him up with normal also
Let me know what happens .
Does your noise come at the end of the stop?

Where are you on long island ,do you ever go to smiths point beach?

I read through the entire manual again. I can't find ANYWEAR where it says

"The H-3 HUMMER has an exclusive GROANING noise in its brakes so as to make this vehicle stand out from all others"

Somehow I've managed to avoid ever reading this thread.. I didn't want to temp fate.. Would rather not know there is a problem that could happen.. Wouldn't worry and be listening to every little noise that way..

Anyroads.. I scanned through the entire thing quickly.. Saw stuff about replacing pads, resurfacing rotors, sanding stuff, etc... If this IS just noisey pads it may be as simple as modifying the pad just enough to change any harmonic resonance..

The brakes on my motorcycle are some noisy SOBs... They squeal, they groan, they cuss at me, etc... I found that if the leading and trailing edge of the pads are cut off at a 45 degree angle, noises all but go completely away..

Just something to think about...

Im going to rotate the tires next month and inspect the brakes myself,I will have it apart so I might as well shave the pads It couldnt hurt.
I might also add lube and add shims if needed.


hmmm :The once it did it could thet have been the antilocks?
