Got a 07 LT,2.4L,put 20k miles on it,valves went bad,got a reman from GM,sent me an engine with NO crankshaft position sensor ring,sent it back,they sent another one,same story.Reported it to GM,they were not aware of this till I PITCHED A *****,now I find that this has happened alot.My baby has not had a engine for 27 days.So if yer thinking about getting a reman engine,make sure your supplier has actually tested it out,might cost a bit more.When I asked GM for some help with the rental car($500.00 as of today)Guess how that worked out? NOTHING. Anybody else have this happen?:

 

Welcome to the site I moved this thread to general hhr.

 

But you forgot to approve it, I did it.

I did not know that GM sold reman engines.
Most remans come bare, many don't even have an oil pan. ALL electronics are the purchasers problem.

 

My 2006 HHR is my last GM car, love my HHR a little over 67,000 miles some minor problums still I love the HHR they just did not know how to sell it.

 

The HHR was a special type of auto. It wasn't quite a car, it wasn't quite a wagon and it wasn't quite a suv. It only appealed to a select amount of people. I think GM made this car on a hope that it would hook more people but missed the mark.

 

I disagree, I think it hooked a lot of people. It was in production for 6 years. It was a direct response to the PT Cruiser and designed by the same guy. There are tons of HHRs on the road. Its a wagon for a certainty. GM listed it as an SUV to get it into it truck fleet to help its CAFE numbers, but the reality is that its a Cobalt with a really cool and far more functional small wagon body. One that has more CU of cargo space than other wagons of the same size range.

 

I agree with Doc, there are an awful lot of them out there. It did go head to head with the PT Cruiser, and IMO had/has a lot more to offer than the PT. The demand for them used seems to be cyclic. A year ago the dealer was offering me virtually what I paid for my 07 new, this year not so much. Regardless, I'm hanging on to it since it is specially set up to tow behind our motor home.
