I PURCHASED 2004 GMC CANYON USED FROM DEALERSHIP. I TOOK VEHICLE HOME AND WITHIN A COUPLE DAYS THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON AND WOULD NOT TURN OFF. I TOOK VEHICLE BACK INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY LOOKED AT IT AND RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO ME. THEY SAID IF IT COMES BACK ON TO LET THEM KNOW. WITHIN A WEEK WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE ABS LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND STAYED ON. TOOK VEHICLE BACK IN AND THEY LOOKED AT THE BRAKES AND FOUND SOMETHING ON THEM. THEY REMOVED THE GUNK AS THEY SAID AND SAID IT WAS A RECALL AND WAS NO CHARGE FOR ME. I HAVE NOT FOUND ANYTHING ABOUT A RECALL DUE TO THE ABS STAYING ON. *TR

CLIMATE CONTROL FAN ONLY WORKS IN POSITION 4. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT WAS A RESISTOR ON CIRCUIT BOARD. THEY SWAPPED IT OUT. LESS THAN SIX MONTHS LATER SAME THING. TOOK IT IN AND DIDN'T HAVE THEM REPLACE IT. THEY DID HOWEVER DISCONNECT CONNECTOR TO MOTOR, IT WAS BURNT AND SLIGHTLY MELTED. WHY ARE THEY NOT INVESTIGATING THIS. I ASSUME THAT THE CONDENSING CAMBER DOESN'T DRAIN PROPERLY, THUS IMPINGING ON SQUIRREL CAGE BLOWER, THUS HIGHER STARTER AMPS REQUIRED AND THAT IS HOW YOU OVERCURRENT THIS CONNECTOR AND RESISTOR. *TR

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2004 GMC CANYON PU, PURCHASED ON 06-10--04. ON 05-10-06, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL GMC DEALER IN SOUTHERN CA. BECAUSE THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL STAYED ON. THE VEHICLE MILEAGE AT THIS TIME WAS 42,220. THE PROBLEM WAS TAKEN CARE OF AT NO CHARGE. ON 12-28-07, I TOOK THE ABOVE LISTED VEHICLE (MILEAGE 74,456) INTO MY LOCAL GMC DEALER IN SOUTHERN AZ. BECAUSE THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AGAIN STAYED ON. AN ELECTRICAL DIAGNOSIS OF THE SYSTEM REVEALED A FAULTY PRE TENSIONER. THE SERVICE CONSULTANT TOLD ME IT WOULD COST OVER $300 TO INSTALL A NEW PRE-TENSIONER. HE SAID HE ALSO CALLED GMC HQ TO FIND OUT IF THE CHARGE COULD BE WAIVED AND WAS TOLD NO. THEY TOLD ME THAT IF I WAS INVOLVED IN A CRASH, THE AIRBAG MIGHT NOT DEPLOY. I DID NOT GET IT REPAIR AT THAT TIME. I WROTE TO GMC HQ ABOUT THE PROBLEM SAYING IT WAS A SAFETY DEFECT AND AFTER CONSULTING WITH THE AZ DEALER, THEY SAID NO TO MY WAIVER. I WOULD LIKE YOUR AGENCY TO LOOK INTO THIS MATER TO SEE IF OTHER GMC MODELS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE CONTACT ME. THANKYOU *TR

Official recalls

GM IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2004-2011, CHEVROLET COLORADO, GMC CANYON, MODEL YEAR 2006, ISUZU I-280/I-350, AND MODEL YEAR 2007-2008, I-290/I-370, REGULAR CAB VEHICLES AND EXTENDED CAB VEHICLES WITHOUT A REAR SEAT AND EQUIPPED WITH A FRONT 60/40 SPLIT BENCH SEAT. THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 225, "CHILD RESTRAINT ANCHORAGE SYSTEMS." THE TOP TETHER ANCHOR FOR THE FRONT CENTER SEAT IS NOT ACCESSIBLE AND THE OWNER MANUAL DOES NOT INCLUDE INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING HOW TO USE THE TOP TETHER.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: BOTH NHTSA AND GM DISCOURAGE PLACEMENT OF A CHILD IN A FRONT SEAT. NEVERTHELESS, THERE ARE INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCES THAT MAY REQUIRE PLACEMENT OF A CHILD IN A RESTRAINT IN THE FRONT CENTER SEATING POSITION OF THIS VEHICLE THAT DOES NOT OFFER A REAR SEAT. LACK OF ACCESS TO THE TOP TETHER ANCHOR AND A LACK OF INSTRUCTIONS AS TO HOW TO USE IT, MAY RESULT IN IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF A CHILD RESTRAINT. IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF A CHILD RESTRAINT CAN RESULT IN A REDUCTION IN THE RESTRAINT'S PERFORMANCE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH AND AN INCREASED RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH TO THE CHILD SEATED IN THE RESTRAINT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL CUT A HOLE INTO THE BACK PANEL TRIM COVER TO ALLOW ACCESS TO THE TOP TETHER ANCHOR FOR THE FRONT CENTER SEAT POSITION AND WILL PROVIDE SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION AS TO USE IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT YET PROVIDED AN OWNER NOTIFICATION SCHEDULE FOR THIS CAMPAIGN. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727 OR VISIT GM'S WEBSITE AT WWW.GMOWNERCENTER.COM.

GM IS RECALLING 185,903 MODEL YEAR 2004-2009 COLORADO, GMC MODEL YEAR 2009-2004 CANYON, MODEL YEAR 2006 I-280, I-350, MODEL YEAR 2007-2008 I-290, AND I-370, PASSENGER VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD IN OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN THE STATES OF ALABAMA, ARIZONA, FLORIDA, GEORGIA, HAWAII, LOUISIANA, MISSISSIPPI, NEVADA, NEW MEXICO, PUERTO RICO, SOUTH CAROLINA, TEXAS, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS AND UTAH. SOME OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE A BRAKE LAMP SWITCH THAT MAY NOT WORK AS DESIGNED DUE TO CONTAMINATION IN THE SWITCH.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS CONDITION COULD CAUSE THE SIMULTANEOUS LOSS OF ALL BRAKE LAMPS OR CAUSE ALL OF THE BRAKE LAMPS TO STAY ON CONTINUOUSLY. BOTH OF THESE CONDITIONS COULD FAIL TO WARN OTHERS OF THE DRIVER'S INTENTIONS AND COULD LEAD TO A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE THE NECESSARY COMPONENTS AS SPECIFIED IN THE RECALL BULLETIN FREE OF CHARGE. GM ANTICIPATES THAT PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE BY JUNE 2010. A SPECIAL COVERAGE FOR VEHICLES REGISTERED IN ALL OTHER STATES WILL BE IMPLEMENTED IN THE SAME TIME FRAME. IN THE INTERIM, OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCE THE FAILURE CAN OBTAIN A FREE REPAIR, HOWEVER THEY WILL BE REQUIRED TO RETURN WHEN THE NEW DESIGN PART BECOMES AVAILABLE. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727 OR AT WWW.GMOWNERCENTER.COM.
Apr 27, 2006
CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS MAY EXPERIENCE THE PERMANENT LOSS OF BRAKE LAMP FUNCTION OR BRAKE LAMPS THAT ARE ILLUMINATED AT ALL TIMES. THE CENTER HIGH-MOUNTED STOP LAMP (CHMSL) IS AFFECTED IN BOTH INSTANCES. ALSO, IF EQUIPPED, THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL BECOME INOPERATIVE. ANY TRAILER BRAKE LAMPS WHICH ARE CONNECTED TO THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE LAMP WIRING WILL MIMIC THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE LAMPS WHEN EITHER CONDITION OCCURS.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A FOLLOWING DRIVER MAY NOT KNOW WHEN THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN APPLIED, AND A REAR-END CRASH COULD OCCUR WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE BRAKE LAMP SWITCH ASSEMBLY. THE RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 5, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438; GMC AT 1-866-996-9463 OR ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727.
