Guess the best guy can't work on every car but you are right in thinking that after the third trip in someone a little more qualified might take a shot at fixing it. Sad part is I am sure they bill Hummer for their incompetence.

Trey, don't worry. I will bring my H3 cover just in case it rains. It should fit in the H2.

I usually park first in my driveway and that solves the problem, but my wife was away on a business trip, so I parked behind her not even thinking that there would be a problem.

Camou2 no need for a car cover, I'm sure the hotel has a level parking lot. If not I can put the back tires up on the curb and leave it like that overnight.

It's funny you guys metion parking the other direction or somewhere else, because that's what I usually do when I know it is going to rain.

I don't think NOW was the right time for this thread for poor Trey, what with the ROTM and all

Trey,
I can understand your frustration. I went through the same BS with a brand new Dodge Diesel pickup once and ended up getting rid of the damn thing because of the dealers’ incompetence. I came unglued at the dealer also to the point that they wouldn’t even talk to me so I called Dodge in Detroit and then the SHTF!! Besides why should you have to park your H3 in a “certain direction” because it’s going to rain? How crazy is that? Good luck!

I'm torn I LOVE the H3 and going off road in it. I even have it tattooed on my leg! I can't see myself in the H2 for me personally they're just too big for my needs and whose to say that won't leak if I park it in my driveway.
It has to be a major design flaw, how can I have an '06 and an '07 that have the same leak? But yet I'm the only one that seems to have the problem. Like I said it doesn't happen if my H3 is parked level in the rain. I guess I'm the only one with a sloped driveway. I guess my only solution is to move to a different house!?!

I say you take one of their loaners and park it until it rains and see...

as long as the loaner isn't slate blue... you should be ok....

My driveway is sloped (probably shouldn't say this because it's raining) but mine doesn't leak parked there. Wife's is sitting out in it right now so we'll see.
