Service Brakes · at 136,000 miles · reported Mar 7, 2017
While driving on a city street at approximately 40 MPH the vehicle started making a loud noise (Similar to the sound a dirt bike engine makes). The sound became loluder when I pressed the brakes. I took the vehicle to the repair shop and was notified that the hydrobooster failed resulting in a steering fluid leakage.
Engine · at 90,000 miles · reported Nov 16, 2014
My vehicle's warranty which I purchased separately had just expired but I still went back to dealer as the noise I had reported to them under warranty was now more apparent. Turns out it was due to broken off exhaust header bolts.now I AM out of warranty, dealership will not fix. I have 1 broken on drivers side and 3 on passenger side. Now my check engine light is on showing an oxygen sensor failure or catalytic converter. After researching the internet this problem is affecting thousands of people. Something needs to be addressed !!

While driving my 2005 h2 hummer in a rain storm the windshield washer motor came on and started spraying water and would not stop until the motor quit working. Thank god I did not wreck. After checking other sites and complaints this looks like a defect not only in 2003 models but 2005 models as well.
