problem #2

Mar 012006

Canyon 4WD 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 18,500 miles
: the contact stated while the outside conditions were freezing the linkage for the transmission froze as well. This resulted in the inability to change gears until the ice melts. The contact stated by the time the vehicle would arrive at the dealership, the ice would melt. Therefore, the vehicle has not been seen by the dealership.

problem #1

Apr 202005

Canyon 5-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 100 miles
Within 1 week of purchasing the vehicle in 4/05 the transmission would bang into 2nd gear. It didn't matter if you took off slowly of accelerated quickly. Took to the dealership, they did a computer diagnostic test and found no problems. The vehicle continues to do this.
