1 inch section of magnetic strip GLUED to outer rim of reluctor rim broke off. For an item that sees such a high rate of speed, gluing anything to the outside is piss poor engineering.

GM case #[xxx]; GM recall bulletin: 15595A National Highway Traffic Safety Administration campaign id for recall: 16V054 GM issued a recall bulletin related to a defect in certain 2015 GMC Canyon trucks due to loss of power steering due to a poor electrical connection within the torque sensor harness connector. This presents a greater risk of a crash and a safety concern. My name is [xxx] and I own a 2016 GMC Canyon VIN #[xxx]. my stability track indicator came on and my power steering stopped working. I took my vehicle into a GM dealer and was charged $180 to diagnose the problem. I was told due to low voltage the recommendation was a new battery. The battery was replaced costing me an additional $140. The next day, the stability track indicator came on and my power steering stopped working again. I took it into the GM dealer again and was told this time there was an issue with my torque sensor which is the same issue in the recall bulletin #15595A for the 2015 trucks related to power steering. Concerned and frustrated, I called GM and was issued with the aforementioned case #. I was told someone would call me, which no one did. The dealer then informed me that GM would cover 80% of the cost still leaving me with a bill of $734! I wrote this compliant to GMC for several reasons and including NHTSA due to the safety issue. This is obviously the same issue being experienced in the 2016 trucks not just the 2015 trucks. I am bringing attention to this issue as this issue may constitute a recall needed for the 2016 which hasn't been done. This is not only concerning as the issue presents risk of a crash, a safety concern and owners like me having to incur out of pocket expenses. I am requesting an investigation into my issue and for GMC consideration of reimbursement of $734 in addition to $320 out of pocket expenses.

My wife and I were traveling at approximately 55 miles an hour when all dash lights nav system gauges etc. Turned off. It was as if I turn the ignition off. Then it turned itself back on and seem to function normally. The vehicle had a similar problem previous to this and there was a recall performed on it recently. Also this vehicle is supposed to get close to 30 mpg and now the best I can get is 21 mpg. It has had a rough idle and shut down on me several timesduring the last few years. I feel like this vehicle is unsafe and GMC should be held accountable. I bought this vehicle because I wanted good fuel economy from a diesel and that is not the case. This vehicle has had a number of major issues and numerous recalls but none have addressed the vehicle shutdown. I have read multiple accounts of owners nearly getting killed when their vehicle randomly shuts off while driving. The vehicle seems unsafe and I feel they misrepresented the fuel economy of the diesel engine.

Vehicle frequently shuts off during braking or while stopped and must be restarted before the vehicle can operate again. Vehicle experiences violent gear changes and significant lagging during periods of moderate acceleration at low speeds. Gear changes result in either severe unresponsiveness and a general lack of acceleration or an aggressive gear change that jerks the vehicle and spins the tires.

The throttle and transmission feel as though they were separately developed for two different vehicles and just randomly matched in the truck. The accelerator is very non-linear and unresponsive. Then the transmission is constantly in the wrong gear. This truck is a nightmare to drive in traffic or on windy hilly roads. You have to constantly guess where your foot should be to get any kind of stability or acceleration from the truck. If you are trying to pull out in traffic you better be prepared to have a lot of room because it might just shake and shutter before finding a gear and actually accelerating. This is dangerous and I find it odd that there havent been collisions attributable to this. If anyone from GM is reading this, know this will be the last GM product I ever buy. Either you dont know how to engineer a vehicle, or you simply just dont care about your customers. Im guessing the latter.

When trying to accelerate vehicle studders and has no power until more gas is applied. Vehicle changes gears way to fast causing you to have to apply more acceleration. Vehicle doesn't downshift causing you to also have to apply more acceleration to gain speed. Serious safety hazard.

I purchased a GM 2016 Canyon in October, 2016 and had driven it nearly six months when the event decribed here occurred. Up until April 16, 2017, I had had no problems with the truck. However, on easter Sunday afternoon, while attempting to slow my Canyon down and preparing to stop at a stop light, the engine seemed to go forward of it's own volition and the truck did not respond to my efforts to bring it to a complete stop. Consequently, my vehicle struck the vehicle immediately in front of it. A subsequent internet search revealed that a technical safety bulletin issued by GM in September of 2016 described this event as having occurred to 2016 Canyon diesel engines. My vehicle has a gasoline engine; nonetheless the condition was described in the bulletin (tsb 16-na-276) as: "some customers may comment on a shudder at low speeds, an idle surge when stopped or approaching a stop." This idle surge describes exactly what happened to my vehicle as I was attempting to slow down and stop at a red light. Although there was no damage done to my vehicle, the officer who investigated the accident would not let us drive our vehicle until it had been examined and evaluated by our local GM service department. The service personnel adamantly maintained then (and now) that the accident did not happen as I described it. I had to contact GMC customer care center to have 15 minutes worth of diagnostics done per computer, esp the engine control module. The tsb states: "if you encounter a vehicle with the above concern, reprogram the engine control module with the latest calibrations." Luckily, the gentleman at the customer care service was able to intervene and have the engine control module evaluated and documentation that there were no problems with it or any other "control modules" provided to us by our local GM service department.

I purchased a 2016 GMC Canyon in July 2016. I noticed hesitation when I accelerate, especially when in traffic, going uphill or rounding corner. I researched many forums and found the transmission has a learning period where it does this and adapts to your driving, normally within the first 1000 miles. However, it has been 13,000 miles later and almost a year, and it continues to have this hesitation as bad if not worse than it did initially. GMC has checked it out, gave it a test drive and said it shows no codes so they offer no help. All of my passengers notice this hesitation when it happens. The best way to describe this hesitation is when you push the gas, the truck acts like it doesn't want to go and it becomes shakey. In situations where I'm merging onto traffic, this could be dangerous, as I have had to floor it to make it accelerate. For a new vehicle, this is unacceptable and I felt safer in my 2001 Sierra than I do in this. The fact that GMC will not offer any way to fix this adds to the frustration. No matter what they say, it is not normal for a vehicle to do this.
