What owners say
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 gmc canyon. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle decelerated and the vehicle loss power steering before the vehicle stalled. Additionally, the vehicle failed to start with the check engine warning light illuminated. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 99,294.
Truck locked into limp mode suddenly one day and the check engine light came on. The truck was then stuck in one gear. Took it to a mechanic immediately who replaced the fuse box after finding it burnt out. Fast forward a month later, same issue occurs on the road. Both issues occurred while accelerating during a turn. Took to mechanic again to find TCM fuse burnt out and codes p0700 and p2534 present. Mechanic replaced fuse and stretched out wire bundle to see if wiring was an issue. Mechanic also took the truck on a road test to try to duplicate the issue to no avail. As of now the truck is working after the fuse was replaced, however it may happen again in the future.
The power steering stopped working while driving down the highway. The check engine light, stability track light and the traction control light came on. I was driving straight at the time at 65 MPH. It was able 35 degrees outside.
Vehicle stalls then jerks forward when accelerating and decelerating. Jerking causes brief loss of control as vehicle lurches forward while transmission attempts to catch up. This occurs at any moment while driving (uphill, downhill, turning, city streets and highways) seems to occur most when speeds are under 60 MPH. Causes very unsafe conditions and check engine light goes on and off. Occurred today and has occurred almost everyday since I've owned the vehicle. (2 years)
Tl* the contact owns a 2015 gmc canyon. The contact stated that while driving, the check engine warning light illuminated and the power steering would malfunction. The contact would pull over and restart the vehicle but the issue would recur. The dealer (nyle maxwell gmc 3000 I-35, round rock, tx 78681 (512) 244-8000) diagnosed the failure and replaced the steering gear. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the recall remedy for the federal safety agency campaign number: 16v054000 (steering) ended october of 2018. The failure mileage was 67,528.
After turning the vehicle on I got the following messages showing in the display panel 'engine power is reduced' and 'stabilitrack' also the following lights turn on 'check engine' and 'tc' off. Then I can heard a weird noise coming from the engine. When I moved the car from one place to another, the car lost power.
