I know I would have.

Well maybe thats why GM is now Gobvarmit Motors and Hummer is now a Chineese Entree' best served with 93 octane

Dont get my wrong I love my H2, but maybe they should tell you things, i dont know. Actually, i have never kept a truck or car past the warranty before, so @ 95K this is new territory for me.

As for service,what service. I get the oil and fluids changed. i did the spark plugs. What else do you really need serviced? And its not at the dealer$$$$.

" they would have seen the broken bolts a long time ago. I know I would have."

Really, you need to know the bolts are susceptable to breaking BEFORE it happens, Also, how would you have seen the broken bolts since the flimsy heat sheild covers them, until the heat shield rusts away?, but thats another problem.

For the future, I think an Alldata subscription is in order for every car/truck i own, just to keep current.

still love my H2


2003 Green
all stock
with broken manifold bolts and a rear license plate tray, the black thing, where factory tape and a plastic clip dont cut it, but thats another repair.
