  Sporty good-Looking Truck - 2016 GMC Canyon
  By Jolie Vorse - September 5 - 1:20 pm

  Our teenage son is driving this truck as well as us, his parents; thus we opted for the 4-cylinder engine. The truck is fun to drive and has a very nice back-up camera, which is important to us. The entertainment (bluetooth, stereo, etc.) is very good. The brakes are very responsive. Weve had the truck less than a month and have already taken a road trip with it, and it served us beautifully. So far, I can happily recommend this vehicle.

  100% Satisfied Customer - 2016 GMC Canyon
  By Terrace White - August 15 - 5:59 pm

  I researched all mid-size trucks for two years before finally deciding to buy the 2016 GMC Canyon SLT. Overall exterior and interior styling, comfort, performance, technology and cost were my main deciding factors. This truck definitely meets my daily needs and I am completely satisfied!

  New truck with some issues - 2016 GMC Canyon
  By Philip - June 2 - 2:28 am

  Transmission shifts rough. Poor fit and finish, cheap plastic, two parts broke first week , one on the first day. Finally got them replaced. Oil indicator is messed up, had 53% life with 250 miles, now has 850 miles and only 40% now. Either not reset at the factory correctly or the electronics are messed up. The truck looks great, is fairly comfortable, just rough over bumps, but it is a truck. I have read a lot of horror stories today about GMs customer service and that frightens me. This is first $40,000 vehicle I have ever owned and now that I am retired I had hoped to have a good truck that would last for a long time. I hope it does and that I dont have to deal much with customer service. I will speak with the customer satisfaction representative tomorrow at Linus GMC and see if he can get me some help with the oil indicator issue. I still like the truck, just hope nothing else crops up.

  Most comfottable velicle Ive ever owned! - 2016 GMC Canyon
  By D.R. Steele - December 4 - 5:25 am

  2016 Models do not have a CD/MP3 player. I listen to a lot of books on CD. Now I have to convert to a thumb drive to listen. However, that is not to say that I dont love this truck. I travel extensively on business and hate airports - so...if its less that 12 hours, I drive. Ive owned Ford Tauruses in the past and I always thought they were a comfortable ride, until the Canyon. No fatigue, and I could drive it a long way without having a sore butt! Even my wife says it is more comfortable than her 2015 Buick Enclave! Im sold on this truck, even though I had wished that Ford had a mid-size! Fords loss!

  at least 1 problem - 2016 GMC Canyon
  By Gerald Schmidt - November 5 - 12:29 pm

  In really cold weather, I have had my power steering quit working. It happened to me twice. I shut the vehicle off, went in the store to purchase a few items, came back and started the vehicle. The steering was almost impossible, it also had a message to have the power steering serviced. I shut the vehicle off, restarted, and it was fine again. Kind of frightening to think if your steering went out while driving at high speed, eh? One more thing; I was getting 26mpg, but when cold weather hit, it dropped to 19mpg, which really sucks....

  2.8l Diesel- sweet! - 2016 GMC Canyon
  By ARE-NJ - July 24 - 6:11 pm

  I just got this puppy a month ago and its been a great drive so far. Got the hard to get 2.8l diesel at a fantastic price and then got up sold the extended warranty which Im not so sure I need .. Did it because the 2.8l diesel is new in the USA ( tho not new in Asia apparently).. Truck accelerates good enough for highway but does even better passing over 50 because of torque . Going up hill the truck doesnt sweat it. Gas mileage is great which really hooked me. But we will see how diesel prices out Ive the years and whether it was a good decision vs getting the regular gas v6 .. Slt vs Denali? I say save your money and stick with the slt..

  Powerful - 2016 GMC Canyon
  By Don - July 18 - 2:17 am

  The 2.8 Liter Duramax Diesel is so much stronger than the V6 gas engine it is hard to believe. I have owned both. The fuel mileage is 31 hwy / 26 city on my 2016 Canyon. This is a strong little truck.

  gm messed it up agine - 2016 GMC Canyon
  By Michael Larson Cheney WA. - May 7 - 4:32 am

  The truck is to high . I cant reach the bottom of the bed. My wife cant get in it with out a stool .I had to add a receiver hitch and a 6" drop ball mount because the bumper is 5" higher then my old truck. This is replacing my 92 gmc Sonoma it was just the right size. When closed the back doors are to wide and the handle hits me in the back every time I get in. The cruse control doesnt work and the right turn signal doesnt cancel after a turn. It left the factory this way It gets terrible gas mileage at 70 mph. They made a unheard of bolt pattern 6 lug on 4.72" so my snow wheels wont fit or any other past wheel . We dont need 16" wheels on a small truck. Gm also made the brakes to big so you cant buy after market 15" snow wheels. I bought the 4cly with a 6 speed auto thought Id get better mileage then my 92s 4.3v6 and 4 speed auto but its the same with less power. My biggest complaint is the height

  Great mid size truck - 2016 GMC Canyon
  By Andy - April 20 - 6:36 am

  Great ride ,very quiet cabin, good fuel economy for a truck, 6 cylinder has plenty of power. A pleasure to drive, you would not think you were driving a truck. A lot of tech features if you like that kind of stuff.
