The black rubber around all my windows look like crap. It look dull, scratchy and uneven.

Anyone else

You might be able to make these look a little nicer with some silicone weatherstrip dressing. You can buy this product from any GM parts counter, or gmpartsdirect.com.
Part No. 3634770 is pretty expensive,
Part No. 12345579 is less expensive, but if you buy from gmpartsdirect, you have to buy a six-pack.

I haven't used 3634770, but I have used 12345579 on my 1994 Camaro's weatherstrip. Just applied it, let it set a bit, then wiped off the excess.

Thank you

It is wavy too. I am going to ask them to replace it.

Must be another Hummer thing.

My first '03 H2 came with wavy trim on two windows, and my current '05 SUT has the problem on one window as well.

You know, not to sound like an ass, because I am not!, but I'm starting to question why you even bought the H3, H3Lady?

It seems that every time I log into the forum, I see a complaint post with your name tagged to it. I guess I should say this to be nice...I'm sorry you are having so many problems with the H3. It's a great vehicle and I hope things work out for you.

Aren't automotive forums the most useful thing for finding ways to diagnose and fix everything from big problems to nit-picks? This is a shared ownership experience, and it's a tough-love-fest, not always just a love-fest.

We all like these cars, that's why we're here. What's wrong with trying to make the ownership experience better for someone?

If you don't want to read a complaint or a fix for it, don't click on that thread.

We have an H2 and I consider it flawless, not one time in the shop and the fit is super..

The H3, well...I still love it, but would like to make aware of some of the problems I see. I will only help others and make the brand better. If I can notice it, so can a thousand more potential H3 buyer.

PS, I live 1 mile from a major GM plant, and yesterday while there, I had several GM employees mention the bad fit of the rubber around the windows and how bad it looked.

PS. I heard Hummer monitors this site closely anyway... they will hear it first here.

I'm not going to go this far in my thoughts, but I have to say I do question that most of your posts have been complaints...not all, but most.
There will always be startup problems with any new vehicle, and I mean any new vehicle by any manufacturer. Hopefully, these problems will be small and can be repaired as soon as possible.
My suggestion for any problem is to take it to the dealer and let them repair it.
As you state your H2 is flawless, but is it a first year vehicle? So far, from what I have seen and read on this, here and on other forums, and from what I have seen of the vehicles themselves, this vehicle is one of the best first turn vehicles made. But yes, it might have small problems. Nothing made by man (or woman ) is totally flawless.

H3Lady,

I think I just found a picture of your H3...





I'm just messing with you.

I'll give you one thing H3Lady, after washing my H3 this weekend, the wash sponge I used left lint in the "fuzzy" part on the bottom of the window. THAT made it look like crap! It's a pain in the ass to clean up too. White on black....hmmm!
