Glad to hear your issue is solved!

I phoned DeMontrond, got voice mail, will try again later.

I talked Beck and Masten, andthey confirmed that a new part is available, but on back order. I'm going to phone Don at McGinnis again and see what he has to say about all this. That dealer is close to my place of work, so if I can get it fixed there, great. If not, I'll gladly use another dealer, I really don't feel any loyalty to any of them at this point.

H3PR, the question I have for you is the part number that you listed above is different from the #25900714 others have listed. Which one is correct?

Thanks,
Manford

I'm not 100% sure on this, so don't quote me. Several people mentioned that originally, even though the lower shaft was aredesign, GM was still using the same part # as theold shaft. Possibly this is the # that H3PR posted, and was being used before the new part # was assigned. I'm really not sure though.

What I am sure of, is that the part # on my invoice (from 4 wks ago)is 25900714, and that currently seems to be the # that is being used, as others that have had the fix very recently have this # on their invoices.

 

In what I've read in the previous posts, the old shaft has a white marking and the new shaft has a yellow marking.

 

I just had my steering shaft replaced on saturday. I have a 2006..they used part #25900714. It seemed to have solved the problem

 

Mine is a 2007 and I just noticed right off the showroom floor ( H3 1 week old now) that i have this 'bumpy" tire feel at 70-100 kph (45-60 mph) and then it smoothes out (no pedal stuff). Tires looked good and air looks good. Puzzled...may take in for a balance check but mine is a little different but weird, can't explain it. ???

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 thoughtI would update on my 07H3 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 dealerfor taking care of this issue.
