H2 is 3 month old and the rear bumper is rusting around the tow hooks. No problem, the dealer is replacing it this week, but it's just a PITA................Any one else have this problem? It's right where the tow hooks and tire are attached to the bumper.

Yea, two little rust spots by the top of the tow hooks. Looks like they extend under the hooks. they always give me a cool car to drive though. Had a CTS and a DTS........fun to drive.

Hey BS, I know you have an H2, but do you notice anything different with the 07 H3 ? Does it seem to have more power with the bigger engine? Do you have familiarity with the 06 to compare? Any info appreciated and good luck with your H2 repairs.

Can't tell about the power from 2006. I looked and it has the 3.7, seems like enough power but it could use more. The 2007 must have Onstar as a option, because it does not have it. ( I thought it came standard in 06). other than that, everything else ls the same.....The only thing that I don't like is where the window controls are located. you have to put a weird bend in your arm and wrist just to roll down the window....the new color is cool also, just a little darker from the 06 blue. Looks like I'll have this for 2 or 3 days, so I'll enjoy

My hitch and tire carrier are rusted. Except mine have been painted aftermarket so that'd probably why. I'm taking it to get painted after I get some audio stuff done before this car show coming up on the 19th

Just a little darker and the paint has a lot of depth to it. Looks very nice

The bumper they ordered came in damaged, so they overnighted another one......That one came in damaged, so they hope to have another one on friday or monday. Kinda ticks me off but, The 3 is fun to drive so its ok. ...Only problem is, my wife is starting to like the H3..
