Question: I know you want to drive your rig, but your dealer is giving you a replacement daily driver, right? Why not ask for an upgraded replacement (maybe an H2?) in return for all the hassle. Can't hurt, and you never get what you don't ask for...

I have seen 3 h-3's with similar problems. Get the dealer to check the connectors under the UBEC, they are a push to seat connector and have seen some not seated properly causing all kinds of wierd problems. They need to be pulled upwards and locked into place and then the UBEC can be installed carefully to seat the connectors.

The dealer said the problem was initially caused by a bad ignition switch, frying the BCM. BCM was replaced 1 1/2 weeks ago. Ignition switch is supposed to get there tomorrow. Hopefully this fixes my problem.

WORST DEALER EVER!!!!
My Vehicle is still not fixed. I have been told it was the BCM they were waiting for and then the Ignition switch. Now we are back to BCM. Either way, the part isn't there!!
All GM and the Dealer know is that its on a truck between here and Michigan.
The Dealer has not made any effort to keep me updated. It isn't even guaranteed that this is going to fix my problem.
GM told me the part was supposed to get there on Monday.

The BCM has arrived and the problem continues. They have replaced the PCM, BCM, and ignition switch.
I asked them to check the connectors to the UBEC and BCM and to replace the grips. I am told that this has been done.
At this point I don't want the vehicle anymore. There is no way I can trust GM's troubleshooting and their ability to fix this vehicle. This is a huge safety issue.
I am going to demand a new car. I've been waiting for 5 weeks now and this cannot continue like this.
I know I have much more frustrations ahead of me.

This all sounds like BS. If it's not BS you're a dumbass for not taking it to a Hummer dealer for the warranty work, regardless of how bad traffic is or how far away it is. 
First, you crank a vehicle. You don't "turn it on." You would drive it, not ride it. The engine dies not "turns off."
Then there all of the inconsistencies with the dealers among numerous others that are too many to list.

The vehicle was at a non-hummer dealer for 3 1/2 days. Its been at the hummer dealer since. Almost 5 weeks total.
I don't have time to make up stories and really this has taken to much of my time. I don't have time to call this dealer everyday. So whether you believe it or not, this is the case.

This is from your first post. You obviously have too much time. Move on, sport.<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Originally posted by kilo3031:
My vehicle has been sitting at the dealer going on its fourth day and they are baffled. No fix seems near.
What should I do? Can I make the dealer give me a new vehicle? Vehicle has been non-functional longer than I had it running normally.  </div></BLOCKQUOTE> |

My Vehicle didn't quite make it to the fourth complete day at the other dealer. All that really doesn't matter much now.
If anybody cares to give any other comments on the original subject. I would appreciate any other advice on what I can do next.
It's hard to determine what the lemon law can do for me without getting legal advice.
At the very end of this, all I really want is a safe functional vehicle.
