Replying to: janleighs (Dec 05, 2006 9:02 am) does a water leak qualify under the state lemon law...I was under the impression it had to be safety related.....might be wrong.....I had a check engine light that couldnt be fixed on an 03 vehicle....never got it off the lot before it would come back on...never got more than 150 miles on the new vehicle....the general manager of the dealership finally made it right and got me in another like vehicle..even had more options....   you have stated how you have approached the dealership other than the service department....have you taken it beyond that.....to the management..to the regional service reps...etc.....a good lawyer also costs time and money.....also be advise if you have mileage on the car in excess of the normal...12-15K.....you will still probably be liable for some costs as well.....

Replying to: janleighs (Dec 05, 2006 8:57 am) UGH water leaks can be very difficult to find. I would suggest trying to find where water seems to be tracking from yourself when it happens again. Some places I have heard of leaking are the door seal (part of weatherstrip is taped on and sometimes tape is loose). Also check cabin air filter to see if it gets wet (gasket near there may be problem). There may also be a rubber grommet through firewall that could be suspect.

I Purchased a 07 LT. I wanted a car i could tow 4 down that was automatic. My HHR fits the bill. Also gives me some storage space for things I don't want to put in the Motor Home. Not many miles on it yet but I do like the retro styling. Also I wanted something that would suplement my MH gas milage.

Replying to: ray80 (Dec 07, 2006 5:15 am) Had the same problem with mine, water leaking onto the floor and the fan motor control resistors blowing out. (had only high speed fan).     The dealer found on the first try that the fan motor housing gasket was faulty and installed a better gasket. After driving through a heavy rain a few days later. it leaked again and no fan speeds. He replaced it again and so far 3 weeks later and 2 heavy rains, it hasn't leaked.     I have to give the local dealer credit for fixing this and the sticky key/shifter cable problem. They try their best and fix things promptly Replies to this message: luvsink (Feb 22, 2008 2:07 am)
#33 of 142 HHR - general comments from an owner by kathiky1 Jan 24, 2007 (6:46 am)
In case you're considering the HHR... here are some things to consider (I like my HHR, but I'm giving it to my son and buying a Camry). As a less expensive car, it's not bad.   PROS ---- Affordable (pd $22K for 2LT with all but onstar) Unique in look Back Storage area is big Nice headroom for tall people Seat heaters work well Storage compartment on top is perfect for GPS Radio is easy to control while driving Seats fold down easily.   CONS ---- Blind spots are really starting to bug me! Not enough drink holders Plastic doors/floor runners don't clean easily Doesn't have the pickup I thought it would In-town MPG are far less than expected (less than 20?) Can't figure out when I can select outside air (refuses) Needs more usable storage compartments Window controls are in a bad spot while driving Requires highest octane gas (ouch!)
#34 of 142 XM Radio Subscription by smogdung Feb 03, 2007 (2:27 am)

#35 of 142 cross rails by jenmike Feb 07, 2007 (12:06 pm)
We just got a new 2006 HHr on January 27th, 2007 and so far we love it. It is great for just cruising around town. The only question I have is where else can I find the cross rails for the roof rack.. They are $300.00 at the dealership and that is way more than i want to pay.

Replying to: jenmike (Feb 07, 2007 12:06 pm) Did you check Ebay. I found a lot of Mopar accessories for my 2007 vehicle there and at a fraction of the dealer cost. Actually most are listed on Ebay by dealers but with out the inflated price.
#37 of 142 cross rails by jenmike Feb 13, 2007 (1:40 pm)
just to get back with you on the cross rails, I found that Thule 450 fits the HHR. They are called Thule 450 Crossroad Railing Mounted Foot Rack for Car Roof Rails for about $110.00 along with the Thule 50" Load Bars for about $50.00. I found the Thule 450 cheapest at Amazon.com and the load bars at Auto Barn. So for about $160.00 plus shipping, it is better.
