Mine seems to do this upon start up? Is this the same thing?

Brand new 2008 Hummer H3 Alpha just purchased this week has the problem exactly as described in the initial post.

don't mean to jump in but i just put my 07-H3 in yesterday because of a noise that sound like a rock in the tire but i went thru and removed all rocks and still made the same noise . dealer told me that it coult be the shaft but did not say what shaft.

Got mine back yesterday and the Intermediate steering column fix works.  No issue at all with the dealer, my service advisor knew exactly waht I was talking about and had done several vehicles including 2008's like mine. It just took a day for them to get the part - no biggie - they gave me a Caddillac DTS to use while it was waiting.

I thought I would update on my 07 H3 steering shaft fix I had a month or so ago. I had to wait for some hot day's to make sure it was fixed. After a few 95 degree day's here in the Los Angeles area and 100 degrees today. It absolutley ran without any problems. Running good even in all the smoke and ash in the air across the Los Angeles basin. I would like to give my thanks to Hummer and my dealer for taking care of this issue.

I've had mine in the shop for the past 4 Sarurday's in a row - 1st they idendified the prob as the intermediate steering shaft; then they replaced it; then they identified the upper steering shaft "U joint" as being "worn" (13k miles on the vehicle); now they have replaced the upper steering column as well.  Results:  there is still a little play and a knocking sound when I move the wheel to the right.  I'm very frustrated. 

(That 4door Rubicon looks nice with a lift and 35"s.......sorry, my mind was just wandering for a moment)

My 07 H3 Tactical was manufactured in 06/07. I have noticed the same problem and have NEVER been off of the pavement yet. My wife's is an 08 and have never noticed it in hers. It is VERY sparatic, however annoying. Hope this helps, it helped me. At least I know what to tell them to look for. Thanks

I just bought my H3 yesterday, and I could swear I noticed the little thumping in the gas pedal when I was almost home......[:@]
I have about 222 miles on the odometer......geez, now I will have to have it fixed......I'll call the dealership next week and see if I can talk them into just fixing it, even if it doesn't do it for them.....they usually won't foul around with me, and they know that I know what I'm talking about......for a girl that is!

solarflare -> RE: Front-end Rattle...Any Suggestions? (1/8/2008 4:37:21 PM)

Well I had my shaft replaced with the part #25900714, and once I left it was still there and a little worse than before.....WTH????

I wonder if it's a white dot one or a yellow dot one......

I'm calling my Hummer dealer that is 2 hours away...and see what they say......any other ideas????

BTW, mine is an 08 Lux model

jordsdad -> RE: UPDATE: Front-end Rattle...Any Suggestions? (1/10/2008 9:10:34 AM)

Did they fix the problem for the08's...............I am thinking about purchasing the H3X, 2008 model.

solarflare -> RE: UPDATE: Front-end Rattle...Any Suggestions? (1/10/2008 2:35:11 PM)

Well supposedly they did, but my 08' was built in july of 07'....so I got stuck with a bad one....

eors -> RE: Front-end Rattle...Any Suggestions? (1/17/2008 1:17:28 AM)

I have a 08 H3 right hand drive which has done 900 km and I am getting this exact same condition...very unnerving it feels like the pedals and steering column are going to fall apart.

Have spoken to local dealer and they are unaware of the problem-Hummer was only released in Australia about 3-4 months ago

Let the games begin [:o]

eors, dont worry.  its a super easy fix as long as you tell them that its the steering shaft.  if they try to trouble shoot, it'll take them 3 tries to get it right.  now that there's a tsb, it should be pretty easy tho.  and dont worry about the vehicle either.  nothing bad will happen.  i took a 1300 mile road (round) trip w/ the same problem as well as numerous off-roading excursions and never had any issues besides the annoying noise.
