HUMMER is a brand of trucks and SUVs that was first marketed in 1992 as a civilian version of the Humvee M998. They were discontinued in 2010 but returned in 2021 as a sub-brand of GMC. The civilian model began in part because of the persistence of Arnold Schwarzenegger, who saw an Army convoy while filming a movie in Oregon and began to campaign for a civilian version to be available on the market. The first two HUMMER H1s were purchased by Schwarzenegger.
Though HUMMERs are regaining their popularity, some of their models have left drivers frustrated with continued problems. Many of these vehicles can be considered lemons under Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York law.
If you have purchased a HUMMER that is having maintenance or mechanical problems that don’t seem to be going away, contact the top HUMMER Lemon Law experts of David Gorberg & Associates for information on how the HUMMER Lemon Law process functions in PA, NJ, and NY.
Is My HUMMER a Lemon?
In order to take the first step in the HUMMER Lemon Law process, you need to assess whether or not you actually have a lemon vehicle on your hands. Certain criteria must be met in order for a consumer’s vehicle to be considered under the HUMMER Lemon Law case and buyback program. The first criteria is that he vehicle is still under the manufacturer’s warranty. This is includes purchased, leased, new or older cars. The second criteria is to determine if the issue reduces the value of the vehicle or poses a risk to its occupants or other drivers on the road. Finally, before pursuing the HUMMER Lemon Law process, it is imperative that you have already given the manufacturer a reasonable number of attempts to repair the mechanical problem.
Common HUMMER Lemon Law Defects
HUMMER continues to deal with a potentially dangerous defect with hood clips on the H3 as well as electrical issues on the H2. These serious problems have left U.S. drivers concerned about the possible consequences that could occur if these issues are not remedied.
HUMMER has attempted to remedy defects on several of their models. However, much to the frustration of their owners, safety concerns may still need to be addressed. The continued issues have lead to multiple complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Most HUMMER models are included in these complaints.
Some of the HUMMER models that have been reported to have the most serious defects are:
- The HUMMER H2
- The HUMMER H3
- The HUMMER H3T
Car owners that have experienced continued problems with their HUMMER vehicles have filed complaints with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. This has lead to investigations and model recalls. One complainant stated:
ON 3/13/2020 MY WIFE WAS DRIVING OUR 2007 HUMMER H3 WHEN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND DASH AREA CAUGHT ON FIRE. THE BLOWER MOTOR CONNECTOR MODULE HAD BEEN REPLACED RECENTLY AS PART OF A SAFETY RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND SHE HAD JUST MADE A LEFT TURN. ALTHOUGH THE PART HAD BEEN REPLACED, I STILL BELIEVE THAT THIS RECALL ISSUE WAS THE CAUSE OF SAID FIRE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CALLED IT AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. THERE WAS NO WARNING AT ALL. THIS WAS TRAUMATIC FOR MY WIFE SHE HAD TO JUMP OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND HAD A MISCARRIAGE.
