What 2005 Hummer H2 owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
The wipers would stop working in the front and start working on and off again they would still work on high setting but they would not turn off and the pump on the reservoir for the washing fluid would keep spraying even after all fluid was gone I had to pull out my fuse to keep it from spraying.trying to find out if this stuff is covered on recall or if I will have to pay to get it fixed or if I can please let me know I am not sure what all recalls need to be fixed but I would like to get them done before something bad happens .
This is the 3rd time in the 5yrs I have owned this vehicle that we have lost control of the front windshield wipers during a rain storm in florida. We have replaced at our expense the wiper control module. This time being the shortest span of about a month before it gets damp and malfunctions. Wipers either work intermittent or not at all and this hampers visibility and can cause a wreck. I have noticed that gm had a recall for 2003 but not for other years. I also am a member of the hummer forum and can tell you that this is common amongst all years.
Driving home I began to smell and electrical burning smell. It began very quickly and came and went for about 2 miles. I pulled over and looked and could not see smoke or fire so I continued home. I drove the remaining 4 miles to my home and immediately got my husband to check as the cab had filled with the smell of an electrical fire. He located the area the smell was strongest and then watched as smoke came out. He unbolted the windshield washer fluid tank and the motor on bottom had actually burned, melted and was on the verge of causing some serious damage. The wipers were not being used and had not been touched. This vehicle is equipped with a heater for the fluid.
Wipers stopped on the freeway. Raining really hard.

2005 hummer h2 - windshield wiper not functioning properly. Seems to be a defect with wiper module.
The windshield wipers on the vehicle will at first work intermittently, going on and off at their own will. Then the windshield washer pump will turn on without warning, discharging all the washer fluid onto the windshield. The pump will continue to pump, even with the vehicle turned off. This can only be remedied with the disconnection of the battery. The wipers will then not work. This can occur at any moment, being very dangerous.
