Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“I'm the owner of a newly bought (6/5/2020 purchased date) 2020 Gmc Canyon. I took my truck into the dealership and complained that I have experienced transmission issues when downshifting or accelerating. My most common issue is 'shuddering' when the truck accelerates and sudden 'jerking' when downshifting gears when driving up an incline or even coming to a complete stop. The dealership said they haven't had any problems with the 2020 canyons and unless it reads a 'code' there's nothing they can do. Gm said tell the customer to drive it and we will call if we get any further information. …”
