My Canyon has 21,000 miles on it. Then it died! It did not run without keeping my foot on the pedal til I got off the road. Turns out the rocker arm and spring broke and so the valve got bent. It has been in the shop for 4 weeks now waiting for a head gasket. It seems they can’t find one to fix it. GMC always send me an email asking if my day is good. Really! I missed my vacation and have not had a truck for 4 weeks. Do they not make head gaskets anymore!? I had a Ford that never let me down but I wanted a smaller truck so I chose the Canyon Denali. Boy am I disappointed. And all I get from GMC is that they will fix it as soon as they get the part. I was also worried about the fact that if one valve went out what was to prevent the other valves from going out. I thought they should replace all the rocker arms and springs but they said they only fix what’s broken and I’m still waiting 4 weeks later for that fix.

I have had my 2020 GMC Canyon into the dealership multiple times to get repaired for clunking and chattering which you feel through your seat while ordinary driving down the road. The first time in they said not much they can do and will wait on a firmware update which should fix the issue. Second time in they said they found a bulletin describing this issue and GMC recommended changing to a heavy weight oil be added to the Torque converter this didn’t fix the problem. Now I’m bringing it back in for a third time hopefully they will take this issue more seriously and fix this problem for good, if not I’m going to demand GMC to look into this major defect in their Canyon trucks.

The wifi in this vehicle is poor haven't been able to connect to wifi since I purchased truck January 31st 2019. No one seems to be able to get this problem corrected. I have been calling and writing since I've had the truck and no one has helped me yet. Probably won't buy another Gm vehicle
