2016 GMC Canyon consumer reviews

Power steering went out, transmission is sluggish and slips. No recalls and I'm sure they know about all the problems 2015 same truck has those recalls. I have spent thousands in repairs.

Bought this 2016 GMC Canyon (4cyl) at car max in 2017 . It was part of a commercial fleet and was well taken care of and low mileage . I’ve only have had one problem and that was in the engine cooling system where I had to replace two hoses and a goose neck . While repairing that I noticed an oil leak around the valve cover so I replaced the gasket . It was under warranty still ( just happened in Jan 2024 ) . I could have repaired it myself but who wants to get all dirty when it can be repaired by GMC at little or no cost to me. It still has 6 months remaining on warranty ( I did purchase from CarMax) hoping it does not need any further repairs . It is 8 years old and according to its records this is the first repair other than natural repair items that had ever been needed . It rides well pulls my utility trailer fully loaded just fine . I also have a 2000 Ranger that I had to replace the tranny on when it was just a few years old . It has never needed any other work. I believe the GMC will last me for years to come . But you never know so I will be buying another after market warranty on it when the time comes . I’ve already added that to a 2015 vehicle I own who’s warranty had expired . I’m a old school mechanic I can repair olde vehicles easily ( compared to todays ) I’m also a former Turbo Prop Mechanic from the Air Force and worked those motors for almost 29 years . I had worked on Piston Air Craft Motors for a few years before the change . A lot like a car piston motor in many ways . Two kinds of piston motors on Air Craft . Line a cars block or a receptacating motor( Round) . Very easy to trouble shoot vs Turbo Prop. Just letting you know that I have experience as a mechanic and know a real problem vehicle when I see one . Would buy a GMC canyon again or maybe go larger due to my new 42 foot long Camper I have rec bought .

Good MPG'S with the four cylinder, smooth 6 speed automatic transmission. Very good sound system with bluetooth. Very reliable, just oil changes and tire rotations. Would buy again!

I just got this GMC Canyon for two weeks and the check engine light is on took in to three places and they don’t know what’s wrong with it

Fix the touch screen guys!!! 190k miles and still going but so many little things were kept to cheap when designing this thing. It's still moving and cruising so the 2.5L. Engine I can't knock it lol But next Gen. I pray will be a little more solid interior wise! Thanks

I was a Toyota owner for nearly 30 years, when I wanted to buy a new one their ridiculous pricing and snotty attitude drove me away.This truck has been great no problems what so ever.

It's fairly good fuel mileage, around 20 avg. 4 cylinder engine is gutless, not enough power. 4wd still not working correctly after spending $1500 on it. Steve Landers Toyota sold it to me without servicing it as they should've. So I ended up buying a broke truck and still spending money on it .

So far I love it. The interior could use some more storage options, but otherwise it's fantastic. The two-tone leather is beautiful. Good power for a midsize truck. With a K&N cold air intake I should be over 300hp which is plenty for my needs. I'm 6'3" and the cab is comfortable for me with an extra 3-4 inches of headroom. I'm very happy about the factory berliner, too. Great looking exterior. Overall a great truck.

I wanted to support our country so bought a GMC Canyon new in 2016 and have never regretted it. I have owned 3 Toyota trucks over the years. (All purchased new) and have been great truck's. But I'm supporting US made products from 2016 on. My GMC Canyon is the 4 door with Vinyl seats you would swear are leather and a 4 cyl engine 6 speed automatic transmission. It has never been in the shop for one problem. It has plenty of power for me even occasionally pulling my farm tractor 6,000 lbs on a flatbed trailer. I averaged 25 mpg driving empty on average. Very comfortable seats and very quiet smooth ride. Love the body style. I highly recommend this 4 cyl automatic configuration to anyone needing a truck that wants economy and not trying to kill it by over working it. But it will do everything I need it too do.
