Default XM question

Hey guys,

Just bought my 07 Tactical H3 and was told by the dealer i would have the 3 month trial to XM. I keep trying the band button on the radio but it never goes into the XM1 or XM2 channels.

So my question is ...Are there some H3 2007's that dont have the ability to get the XM trial? My dealer tells me he doesnt know why it isnt working but that they all come with it.....Figured id ask. Thanks

Yup they come with it. Something must be wrong with your band selector? Does it switch to other channels and AM & FM? You were promised 3 months free. Your warranty should take care of it. Did you get the Monsoon package as well?

I plan to switch to Sirius but the transition is a little tricky. Sirius has NASCAR full time and I'm a big fan!

So what's your plan..to renew after 3 mths or switch to Sirius? Either way you need for them to fix it..unless you don't want either.

call XM and tell them, you'll need your ID that shows up on channel 1. I had the same thing happen with mine, they just needed to activate it.

If you can not cycle through it with the Band button, then it does not have it.

I would have the dealer check it out and put in a new radio if they told you it had it.

All 07's do not come with xm. I have an07H3x with the Monsoon system and it did not come with xm. I didn't want it anyway as I prefer Sirius.

I think blackstangs is right--they didn't put the XM equipment in your Hummer. All Hummers w/ XM come with 3 month trial but either your XM equipment isn't installed or isn't hooked up. Is XM on your invoice?

XM is most definitely an option on '07's ($325). it will definitely be on your invoice or window sticker.
