2021 GMC Canyon AT4 4dr Crew Cab 4WD 5.1 ft. SB w/Leather (3.6L 6cyl 8A)
7 of 7 people found this review helpful
Purchased my Canyon AT4 in February 2021 and have about 3K miles on it so far it has been a great truck. I downsized from a full size 2018 Sierra and the Canyon works great for me as I mostly use it to tow my bass boat. I like the size of the truck as it is easier to get it in and out of my single door garage. It tows my bass boat great with al the power I need from the V6! The only complaint I have is the door pocket storage is useless and I wish it had a CD player as I have a ton of CD's that I have not burned to a USB. If you like a truck ride then the AT4 is what you want as I like that type ride in a truck.

I bought the 2021 GMC Canyon Elevation 2wd. I absolutely love it! This is my first GMC and I have to say the inside is probably the nicest I’ve ever had on a truck. I have the v6 which has plenty of power. The truck looks great also! I also think it makes you feel like your driving a full size truck. Compared to my 2017 Nissan Frontier.Would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a new truck.

I purchased my 2021 GMC Canyon Denali Black onyx brand new without ever opening the door. I had it delivered to my house, signed papers and took it for a drive! I knew nothing about it! I love the truck! I have driven the truck from coast to coast and it was very comfortable! I did remove the running boards and the front air dam, thought they looked hideous. Only issue was a dead cell in the battery. The truck tows my camper with ease and handles very well! I now have 10,000 miles and I am super happy with my purchase! Yes, it lacks some luxury equipment but oh well, the enjoyment of driving it makes up for it! The v6 is strong and has a nice exhaust note. The electronic rear locker works beautifully! Would definitely buy again!

I specifically ordered my 2021 in 2020 and received it late October. 2WD crew short box with the 2.5 gas 4cyl and the 6 speed auto. I've put 54k kilometers on my truck already and it's been flawless. I've towed with it and loaded the box right up completely maxing out my payload. Not a problem. For a cheap near no option truck I am very impressed. 74k miles on the clock and it's still awesome 👍

On the good side, the truck looks great! Mine is dark gray with red accents and all the bells and whistles! I’m always getting positive comments on it...that’s where the good stops however. First issue: My check engine light came on at just over 600 miles prompting my online diagnostics to tell me to take my car in for service within one day. It was the Engine Control Unit (basically the onboard computer). It took about 4 days to get a new one and a day for the repair. Second issue: This ones not a big deal, but it shows a quality control issue. I noticed a part just dangling from the front end one day (roughly 700 miles at this point). It looked to be a very cheaply made sensor and I couldn’t quite get it back in its place. Another trip to the dealership! It was outside temperature sensor. The tech was able to plug it back in after about an hour. Probably a good time to mention that this a 42,000 dollar truck with cheap plastic materials. Third issue: My fault for not catching this immediately, but I was parking outside on gravel and didn’t notice the fluid leak! Got my garage built and after the first night of parking on clean concrete, there it was...a puddle of oily fluid! 3k miles at this point by the way! Another trip to the dealership! The fluid was coming from the front differential plug. I was told that that the drain plug had been improperly machined at the factory (45 degree angle vs. straight up and down), so that when the drain plug was installed it was, of course, mis-threaded! So they had to replace the entire casing. As I write this, they have had my truck for 19 days! GM initially shipped them a bare casing...none of the other necessary parts to properly fix it! After another shipment, they still did send everything that was needed! I mentioned quality control earlier...there is a big problem here! I’m now being told it will be another 3 days! Makes me wonder what is really going on with this repair! Fourth issue: This one is unresolved at present. Under normal driving conditions (no towing, hauling, etc.) when going up or down hills the transmission doesn’t shift properly leading to high engine RPMs (3500-4000). This is an 8 Speed transmission! The shop foreman stated that this was normal. Really? I really wanted to love this truck, but now I’m just wondering what’s going to happen next. Another extremely frustrating thing is trying to deal with GM customer service! It’s a 1-800 number that leaves you wanting to set yourself on fire! I can’t count the number of times I was disconnected, waiting for a rep! When I finally got to speak to someone, I couldn’t understand them or got disconnected while on hold! They had my number, but never bothered to call me back! Their motto is “Professional Grade”...it should be “Amateur Hour”!
