2017 GMC CANYON Complaints and Recall Information
The 2017 GMC Canyon has 4 complaints and 1 recall filed with NHTSA. Owners most frequently report electrical issues including the cooling fan running continuously, failures of the thermostat and tire pressure sensors, and sudden engine shutdowns causing unexpected breakdowns. Some report the vehicle failing to start after these incidents.
Common Issues- Cooling fan malfunction. The fan continues running even when the vehicle is turned off, indicating an electrical fault.
- Thermostat failure. The thermostat stops working early in the vehicle’s life, affecting engine temperature regulation.
- Tire pressure sensor failure. Tire sensors cease functioning at low mileage, requiring replacement.
- Engine stall and no-start condition. The engine shuts off while driving, forcing the driver to coast to a stop, and subsequently the vehicle will not start again.
- Electrical system defects. Multiple complaints suggest the underlying cause of these issues is related to electrical system faults.
The 2017 GMC Canyon has one recall addressing fuel system components that may pose safety risks. The recall covers fuel pump detachment and potential fuel line damage.
Recalls- High pressure fuel pump. NHTSA recall number 18V358000 affects 895 GMC Canyon vehicles. The fuel pump may detach from its mounting flange, possibly damaging the high pressure fuel line. A damaged fuel line creates a fuel leak risk that could result in a fire. GM will replace the high pressure fuel pump and fuel pipe free of charge. The recall started July 2, 2018.
Owners dealing with repeated electrical failures, safety-related defects, or recall repairs that do not resolve the issues may have rights under their state’s lemon law. Consulting with a consumer protection expert can provide guidance on available options.

there seems to be electrical issue. the fan won't stop running even when shut off. the thermostat stop working with pretty low milage along with the tire sensors. Fixed the previous issues. Furthermore, while driving the vehicle stop working and had to use the momentum to park on the side of the road causing a unexpected break down. The vehicle won't start. This again seems electrical and the dealership want to charge for this. The vehicle is damaged since the manufacture and huge safety issue. Please urge to get a recall for all this items since it seems immersive expensive and unsafe to have to repair all this issues.
