Default anti pinch

In the manual it says the sunroof and power windows have an anti pinch feature ,but i have tried to test it and it didn't work. while I was rolling upthe windowsI pushed on It and it kept going up & the same thing with the sunroof. DoI have a problem with my anti pinch windowsor is itjust something GM said to get people to buy it?

pushing on it isn't going to make it activate. I think you have to have a stick or something in it for it to work.

Just put a stuffed animal in there that has a squeak thing in it and if it squeaks then you have something to show the Hummer dealership when you inform them about the lack of a anti-pinch or anti-squeak device.

Default RE: anti pinch

After we had purchased our 07 H3 the sales guy came out and went through some things on the H3 that we were unfamiliar with. Well we got to the sunroof and he was explaining the how the anti pinch works. So he told my wife to hit the close button on the sunroof and then he put his hand in the path of the sunroof. His hand was butted right up against the front part of the window opening. So the sunroof got closer, and closer and closer and then almost folded his fingers backwards while it shut on them.He had a few explicit words and bent over holding his hand and then there was a long awkward silence of about 20 seconds. I then said "That look like it hurt!" My wife couldn't help laughing after I said that. The sales guy turned bright red. He said let's try that again. So my wife opened the window back up and hit the close buttonAGAIN, this time the sales guy was putting his hand in the path of the window like it was hot (you know how you tap something very fast to see if it is hot). It was quite comical! Mywife and I livean hour away from the dealership and laughed about it all the way home. I am stilling chuckling about while typing.

The rest of the time he was explaining things to us I couldn't help but replay that in my head with his fingers almost folding backwards.

Anyway I have seen the window first hand (no pun intended)close on somebody's hand in the way and that motor on the sunroof is very strong. I would give it a 10 on the 4 letter word scale.
