First off, I will say GM is on point with the styling of the 2023 Canyon. However thier professional grade truck is not so professional grade. The major complaint, and I see many complaints of the same issue, is the paper thin roof panel. Mine is currently dented from the air blower at a drive through car wash. Not an issue with the car wash itself, just the thin roof panel sheet metal. Other brand vehicles taken through same car wash with no issues. So buyer/owner beware of the air blowers. Other issues are cheap interior material which squeaks (door handle) and looks unappealing. Gas filler pop release does not work much of the time. Rough engine at start up. I also experienced a dead battery ay 7000 miles due to software update issue. I cannot recommend this truck due to my experience and other customer reviews. Update 5/28/24. Service department not wanting to fix dented roof panel. A fight to get them to agree to install stiffening patched. Burns over a quart of oil in 5000 miles, told this is normal in newer engines. A number of computer issues. Side mirror warning lights randomly go off with nothing around. Info screen goes out. Truck will surge when put in gear and foot on brake. Door locks will lock and unlock 10 15 times on some start ups. Gas filler door pop does not work well. Just overall poor quality design and workmanship.

I’ve owned an AT4X for just over 6 months now and love the truck! There was an ecu recall/update that my dealer handled and now I’m enjoying slightly better fuel economy. Ride quality is excellent on road and my limited experience with the truck off road and in snow has been outstanding. The transmission shifts properly and the truck provides plenty of power. I do think GM could have done better with driver and passenger door storage but that’s nitpicking. So far so good. A+ GM.

I researched the midsize trucks for months before settling on the AT4 Canyon. I think the looks, especially interior, are better than any other truck in the category, HOWEVER, it has an issue with the battery draining overnight. Bought the truck in July 23. Battery died October, December, March, and April. The last time was 8 days back from the dealer. On all three dealer trips, they reprogrammed the Serial Data Gateway Module., which was causing the battery to drain during failed Over the Air updates. It obviously is not that. Fact is GM has no idea what it is, but just won't say that. It's across numerous platforms too. I have a friend with a 23 Silverado and he has numerous infotainment issues. He said Chevy guys actually said we don't know what is is, but please be patient while we figure it out. Stay away from these trucks!
