Default New Hummer Owner

Hi Everyone,

Purchased a 2007 H3 in June and have absolutely loved it. It is in great shape and spent 14 years of its life garaged in Arizona. 145,000 miles with a rebuilt transmission at 132,000. I have read that that was an issue and this one went out around the miles that everyone else's did. The only complaint I have is that the BCM is acting up. Key fob doesn't work, cruise only works sporadically, and TPS starts blinking occasionally. But after perusing some of the threads, I see that the sunroof drain line may be the culprit for this. Gonna check that out and see if it needs cleaning. Happy Hummering!!

2007 H3

Welcome to HF.

You need to do the sunroof drain fix regardless and that won't reverse potential electrical damage caused by any water intrusion, but it will stop additional or future damage, like after you get a new BCM. Plan on reading up on inspecting the BCM and its harness/connections for corrosion and compromise. Thanks for the pic.

Finally, a fix for clogged sunroof drain tubes

welcome, but those things didn't get tested before buying your rig?

Could have negotiated the price down some w/those issues known.

I feel I got a pretty decent price compared to all the other Hummers I looked at. I did a decent amount of research, and oddly enough, that didn't come up. The biggest thing I kept seeing was that the transmissions went out fairly frequently around 130,000 miles. Mine was rebuilt at 136,000. Overall it has 146,000 miles. The receipts for the rebuild were in the dash, so at least I have the benefit of the remainder of the warranty.
