If would elaborate we might be able to help with your issues. Most are simpler than than they seem.

I see you have an ‘06 and an ‘09, so yes you are going to need some help, as Donbrew asked, what issues are you dealing with?

I need no help with the 2006 . I have owned it for about 7 years and have driven it all around the country and back with mostly basic repairs here and there.

The 2009 Panel Wagon is the issue.

I recently picked the 2009 Panel Wagon up and have been attempting to iron out the issues with it .

I am about through trying to figure out the issues myself and would rather find someone who is local to me who has experience with these cars .

Offer made, offer rejected. I will go back to my corner and continue being a potted palm.
If you can find a GM dealership that has a mechanic that uses the diagnostic tools available to them, that would be an option. Most won't bother looking at documentation, since they already know everything (sarcasm).

Still not explaining your issues, James. Are there codes? Clunk and bump noises? An explanation would be most helpful.

Let me see if I can get a video together to show the issues .
Maybe that will help to better show what is happening.
Thank You

I have been discouraged with the HHR Panel Wagon

I have been discouraged with the HHR Panel Wagon that I bought quite a while ago and still have sitting.

I have consulted with Tampa local GM mechanics who all have told me that access to GM Tech 2 tool will be needed to diagnose and find the issue.

I also took it to a local shop who tried diagnosing the issue with no success.
He thankfully did not.charge me anything.

I brought the car back and still have it sitting parked.
