NEW YORK — General Motors said Wednesday that it is recalling all Hummer H3s produced since the 2006 model year to fix a portion of the hood that can detach during driving.
The voluntary recall affects 164,190 Hummer H3s and H3Ts in the U.S. and 198,404 worldwide. Hummer spokesman Nick Richards said a device on the hood called a hood louver can come loose and possibly detach while driving.
A louver is a panel on the hood that allows air to enter the engine compartment and prevent overheating. It is decorative on the H3.
Richards said the repair involves applying an adhesive to refasten the louver to the hood. He says there have been two complaints of the problem in the United States and three in Japan.
