Don't know what recall smells like, but I did hear that word come out of the service writer's mouth recently when he mentioned the possibility. Interesting.

How many have had to have theirs replaced more than once? I'm noticing that my h3 doesn't idle properly yet again. I'm hoping it's not this issue once again.
I may just trade for an '07 or up to an h2

I didn't take a big hit trading up to 07. check into it when the big offers come out again.

Sorry to hear that your check engine light has come on again and your engine is idleing rough AGAIN!
My new head came in but the dealer is waiting on the head gasket!
Maybe next week I can get the head fixed
Sorry guys but if the new head doesn't fix the problem for good, I'm done with GM
I am not going take a hit and pay more money to trade up to a 2007 model just because the 2006 head is having problems. How do we know the 2007 head has corrected the problem? And I am not going to get the head replaced every 10K miles.
If it is a recall I want a new 2007 H3 to replace the 2006 gratis from GM.

I understand completely. I am presently on hold with GM and have been for 48 minutes. No lie, 48 minutes. I'm not hanging up, I've got all day

This is actually the first GM product I've ever owned. Now that I think of it- it's the first American made vehicle I've owned. Only reason I'd buy another GM is the fact that despite all the issues I've had with my H3- I love it. It's fun to drive and I can't imagine being without it.
*how the hell did I mess the quote up?
