| SUSPENSION - FRONT - CONTROL ARM - LOWER BALL JOINT | ||||||
| EA05017 | GENERAL MOTORS CORP. | 10/28/2005 | 04/30/2007 | HUMMER H2 STEERING KNUCKLE FAILURES | ||
| Odi upgraded this investigation at the conclusion of pe04-080.the alleged defect involves the failure of the steering knuckle at the lower ball joint boss, resulting in a separation of the lower ball joint from the knuckle.a lower ball joint separation could result in a loss of steering and/or a disabled vehicle. it appears that the fractures of h2 steering knuckles can be attributed to wheel/tire collision forces being transferred directly to the steering knuckle.the original knuckle design appears to be sufficient for the h2 application.evidence from inspected vehicles, photographs, police reports and edr data indicates collision impact events placed stress on the steering knuckle causing it to fracture.further use of agency resources does not appear to be warranted.the closing of this investigation does not constitute a finding by nhtsa that no safety-related defect exists with regard to the subject component.the agency reserves the right to take further action on this issue if warranted. | ||||||

| I started my vehicle 4 days ago and the speedometer and gauges were frozen and did not operate at all. i drove to the store and the gauge remained at 0 the entire time. when you accelerate the speedometer does not move from 0 mph. i turned the vehicle off and turned it back on and there was no change. yesterday when i started the vehicle the gauge would only move between 30-50 mph. today when i started the vehicle it is frozen at 120 mph and the khm(?) does not move past 1.when i accelerate neither of the two gauges are functioning. i have yet to repair it bc it has happened just a few days ago but i was told that i am looking at a very large repair cost to replace the entire dashboard cluster. the same thing happened in my 2003 model and i sold the vehicle. as well the rear suspension is lowering on its own to the lowest position and does not go back to the normal height. i have to push the button on the interior. when i return to the vehicle the following morning the rear suspension has dropped down again. *tr | |||
