There is a known issue with this vehicle leaking I noticed it when it was raining that rain would leak through the on star microphone as well as through the front the driver and passenger doors and make the carpet like a sponge: https://youtu.be/ennnfwkhqwo the video attached to this link shows a prime example. If you read the comments it would show many customers of been affected with the same exact model vehicle. Also this video shows another example of water leaking through the on star microphone. Https://youtu.be/aqhyfoosmxg it is too expensive to have to pay $130.00 for them to diagnose a manufacturing flaw that multiple owners are going through. Please set a recall for this vehicle for them to resolve. Again it is a 2006 hummer h3. Thanks in advance.

We have battling the problem of the sunroof leaking on our hummer. There is drain tubes in the corners of the sunroof this water is supposed to go do these tubes then on the ground. How ever this is not the case. In most cases the water leaks down the pillars in the trucks dash compartment and soaks the carpet on both sides and the head liner. We have had it to the dealership on several accessions and they just say they were stop up but they just leak the next day like nothing has even been done. They charge 300 dollars to do this. I have the technician tell me that nothing he has done will fix this off the record..when the water is pouring in there is nothing you can do the onstar goes off and your lights on the inside go dim we have had the cpu short out due to water the blower controller both front speakers and behind the dash all the metal parts are covered in rust. When the electrical parts shorted out the wires were burnt and we were driving when this happened on one occasion and had to have it towed. We have tried everything taken it the dealership did not help. The truck is always damp inside. Then of course the smell of the carpets. I even have contacted gm and just said take to the dealership and they are gonna charge the same thing. I am scared for my wife and family to drive this truck. We will not even leave in the garage due the risk of fire. If you google this problem there is over 60k topics on this and forum after forum about it. And every is saying this. It is obvious that this is a design flaw and gm is not going to stand behind this. I think something should done about this before something very bad happens to someone in these trucks. I just want it fixed nothing else.

Hummer h3 complaint first, the 06 hummer h3 sunroof has leaked on two separate occasions about a year and a half apart, most recent this may-june. Water leakage inside on the front side window panels and floor panels and floor. Moore cadillac-hummer told me that clogged drains were the cause. I think the seal must be defective otherwise the rain would not get in. The first incident was covered under warranty; this past incidence the warranty had just expired so I was charged $100 dollars. I have a feeling that it's going to happen again. I've never had this happen on other cars, the seals never leaked unless I left the roof open. Second, the A/C fan blower recently went out, this july-august, my local mechanic said that the r & r blower motor resistor and resistor wire harness burned out. I've read this on several blogs, that this will happen repeatedly due to the design and resistor capacity. His service fee to repair is $300 dollars; about $170 for labor and $ 130 for parts, which I think is too high. I haven't taken it to the local gm dealer (moore cadillac-hummer), though I purchased it from criswell in gaithersburg, md, since I probably could not afford their cost.
