leaks water into cab, one recall after another , left up to dealer take truck apart and dry out which isn't easy after getting truck back from dealer who had it 11 days still had moisture on inside of window until i bought some humidity control devices for a gun safe and used them for about two weeks to rid truck interior of moisture problems. Paid for four wheel drive truck four wheel has never worked in snow or when you need it, in the shop again, They say third times the charm to fix problem let's hope so

I bought 2016 GMC Canyon transmission unreliable. I don't know what to expect next. Dealer can't fix. General Motors said they didn't know how to fix the problem. They were not concerned if it wasn't safety related. If I had any more problems to "get a lawyer." It is still the most unreliable vehicle I ever owned. I don't know when it will go into it's shakes. Sorry I ever thought about this vehicle. I'm 70 yrs. old and this has to be the worst new vehicle I have ever bought and the worst dealership in Charleston, WV. 2018 Same review as before.

test driving the Canyon Denali this week. I like the truck very much, but couldn't find a comfortable driving position. The power seat is lack of adjustment and the front of the seat is too tall. I decided not to purchase it. Besides that, it's a nice truck. This is a Denali, but the seat is suck.

2016 Canyon tough and elegant

I bought the 2016 Canyon, world class handling and quiet ride. Gas mileage remains around 20MPG city driving on the road jumps to 25MPG. Admittedly I am a very easy driver so that may account for the gas mileage. Over all I have to admit GMC's Canyon is one of the best trucks I have ever driven.

Great truck

This is the best truck I have ever driven, exceptionally quiet, plenty of power, handles well in all weather conditions. The only thing I don’t like is the transmission can’t decide what gear it wants to be in when I make a turn and very slowly accelerate, which causes a slight hesitation. All said, I still give it 5 stars.
