I own a 2005 hummer h2 and a problem developed with the windshield wipers. They will work intermittently and at times continuously also the washer pump runs continually . Dealer said corrosion caused the problem.the only way to stop the wipers and pump is to remove one of the fuses. The dealer said to fix the problem would cost approximately $250-$300. This problem started slowly and progressed to be a constant issue. I noticed that on the federal safety agency website that the 2003 hummer a similar problem resulted in a recall of over 13000 vehicles are other h2 owners having this problem.

Visibility and wiper motor control, and windshield washer control my 2005 has just started showing a known defect that resulted in the recall of 2003-2004, 2006-2008 hummer h2. The wipers will come-on automatically even in the off position, windshield wash front and rear operate in the off position and won't stop. All wipers and windshield wash will operate and then stop completely or turn to intermittent operation neither of which can be controlled by the driver. This started during a snowstorm in washington dc and almost caused me to crash into the back of 18 wheeler on i95.
Tl*the contact owns a 2005 hummer h2. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH in the rain the windshield wipers stopped working. The contact saw a recall regarding visibility windshield wiper/washer motor for the 2003 models and is concerned that his year, make and model is not included since the failure is identical to the recall. The failure mileage was 61,000.
Front wipers stop working, radio stays on when exit vehicle, having electrical issues. Radio came on by it's self at night and drained battery. Turn rear wipers on the radio went off.
Tl*the contact owns a 2005 hummer h2. The contact stated that the windshield wipers failed. Through online research, he discovered the federal safety agency campaign id number 08v456000 (visibility:windshield wiper/washer:motor). The recall states that vehicles have a condition in which water can enter the windshield wiper motor module. If a sufficient amount of water enters the module, over time, the front windshield wipers may work intermittently or they may become inoperative. The contact wants hummer to repair this issue, but his VIN was not included in the recall. The current and failure mileages were 70,000.
Tl*the contact owns a 2005 hummer h2. While driving approximately 55 MPH in rainy weather conditions, the front windshield wipers did not operate when activated. The driver experienced extremely limited visibility. There were no warnings prior to the failure. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer for inspection and they replaced the windshield wiper module. The VIN was unknown. The failure and current mileages were 79,000.
Windshield wipers work intermittently, come on by themselves, then won't shut off. The problem has happened 5 times in 3 days. Same problems as the 2003 recall for same item.....dealer said water in motor and or module causing problem . Have to be replaced. Waiting to here from gm assistance.
I own a 2005 hummer h2. The problem is that both front and back windshield wipers come on by themselves without turning the controls on. It has drained the windshield wiper fluid resevoir down to nothing. They come on if it is raining or not raining. As you can see this presents a hazard if you can not see the road when the fluid is going on the windshield and the wipers coming on when they want to.
Dt: the contact stated the sky light on hummer has much wind tunnel noise through it. She could not hear the radio. A manager of the service department told her that the noise was given, and there had been a lot of complaints about it. The contact said she did not know about this when she bought the car. She had it fixed twice. The first time it was on 3-24-2005. They said the sun roof retainer was loose and they fixed it. The second time was on 5-10 -2005, and they applied double sided tape. She was still having the same problem.
