  General Motors LLC (GM) is recalling certain model year 2015 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon trucks manufactured January 6, 2014, to April 1, 2015. In the affected vehicles, the hooks that secure the driver's and/or front passenger's seat frame may not have been properly attached to the vehicle body during assembly. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 207, "Seating Systems."

  Risk: If the seat-frame attachment hooks are not secured properly, the seat may not be adequately anchored to the vehicle, and in the event of a crash, the seat occupant could be at an increased risk of an injury.

The affected vehicles have a front driver air bag inflator that may be misaligned to the air bag module backplate. This can cause the inflator to separate from the backplate during a deployment.

  Risk: If the inflator separates from the back plate in the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, this may cause the air bag or steering wheel components to separate and be propelled into the interior compartment, potentially seriously injuring the driver or other occupants. Additionally, the air bag may fail to properly inflate, increasing the risk of injury to the driver.

  Fix: GM has notified owners, and dealers will inspect the driver air bag module inflator for proper alignment, replacing the air bag, as necessary, free of charge. The recall began March 19, 2015.

    Power steering and stabalink malfunction causing a radom and very dangerous complete power steering failure. GM was forced to do two recalls for this failure, one in 2016 and another in 2021 but they excluded any Canyon made after May of 2015. The recall should include these as well because their claimed fix did no such thing which is very dangerous to the occupants of the Canyon as well as other vehicle occupants on the road.

    Was driving my truck and would randomly lose power steering while driving. When the power steering cut out it would jerk the steering wheel to the left a little bit and if I pulled over and turned the key off and turned it back on, it would reset and start working until it happened again, which could be five minutes later or 20 minutes later. It would cut out at any given time. I am the second owner of this vehicle and once this problem started happening I looked into it and found out that there was a recall on this, and the recall had been satisfied in 2021 but the problem obviously was not fixed. Tried calling several dealerships with no luck and was forced to get it fixed at my regular shop at a cost of $3023.07. I have receipts for the repair. This is clearly an issue that was never resolved.

The problem is confirmed by a dealer. The component has not been inspected. Yes, there are warning messages on the dash, and they appear in February 2022.

    While driving the vehicle, the power steering suddenly went out. My teenage son was driving and luckily he's had training on this in Driver's Ed or it could have caused a major accident. It has since happened to me while on the freeway and while going up our driveway. I took it into the dealership where I purchased it and they could find nothing wrong, but clearly something is wrong with the wire harness or power steering. I suspect the parts used were part of an earlier recall on GMC Canyon's as the recall ended with vehicles only a month older than mine.

    GMC Service Bulletin - PI1429B Ignition Key cannot be removed and /or does not rotate to the off position. If you place the truck in park and turn off the switch - the key does not rotate to the off position (it only goes to the accessory position) so you cannot remove the key. You have to start it back up and move the truck forward and backward a number of times until the key is able to be removed. There are numerous posts on GMC and Chevrolet forums throughout the internet on this same issue. Cannot imagine why this safety concern is not being addressed with a recall. Gear shift assembly or Part # 23397472 is the most common posts. This happened numerous times but on 03/23/2022 it has happened every time I have tried to turn the truck off.

    WE BOUGHT OUR 2015 DENALI 1 YEAR AGO AND HAVE APPROX 50,000 MILES AND THE PASSENGERS SIDE TAIL LIGHT IS OUT. AFTER RESEARCHING TAILLIGHT PROBLEMS FOR MY MAKE AND MODEL THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE. THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS A RECALL BUT WHEN LOOKED INTO, I SEE IT IS NOT. ITS A SHAME TO SPEND SO MUCH MONEY ON A VEHICLE TO HAVE THE TAIL LIGHT OUT AT 3 YEARS (AFTER FACTORY WARRANTY IS ALREADY OUT) AND YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE WHOLE TAIL LIGHT INSTEAD OF ONE PIECE.

    The contact's grandmother owned a 2015 GMC Canyon. The contact stated that her grandfather was driving approximately 60 MPH on the freeway while her grandmother was occupying the front passenger's side seat. The contact stated that while the driver was attempting to switch to the right lane, the steering wheel locked up and the vehicle shut off unexpectedly. The driver was unable to pull to the side of the road and turned on the hazard lights. The contact stated that another van driving 80 MPH crashed into the vehicle, and the van caught on fire; however, the vehicle of the contact's grandparents did not catch on fire. The vehicle was then rear-ended by three other vehicles, causing the bed of the vehicle to be smooshed into the cab, and the driver's side of the vehicle was smooshed into the center divider wall. The center divider wall might have been damaged. The driver sustained whiplash and was thrown across his wife's lap. The emergency services assisted the driver out of the vehicle and put the driver on a stretcher. The contact's grandmother was assisted out of the vehicle. The contact stated that only the driver's side and passenger's side curtain air bags deployed. The driver was transported to the hospital by emergency services. The contact stated that the driver sustained a crushed spine and severed lower nerves, causing the lower body paralysis. Additionally, the driver sustained broken ribs, 15-20 staples across his head, ruptured lungs, which caused a loss of 7 pints of blood. The driver received a transfusion of 5 pints of blood. The driver's wife sustained a bruised right cheekbone, soreness on the face, the hand, the thumb, and the body. Both passengers were currently receiving medical assistance. It was unknown whether the other drivers sustained injuries. A police report was filed, and the police confirmed that four vehicles had crashed into the vehicle. The police report information was not available. The vehicle was towed to a tow lot, where it was totaled. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

    GMC issued a service bulletin #16019 stating that the HVAC temperature control valve (No. 15-51369) was prone to break causing the defrost to become inoperable. This is clearly a safety concern. However, GMC did not issue a recall. In addition, GMC had a limited time window for customers to address the problem. The dealerships were instructed to examine the part and if faulty, replace it. My GMC Canyon did not experience this problem until after the service bulletin expired. GMC stated that this was not a safety recall. Is visibility not a safety hazard?

    THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT DOWN SHIFT WHEN CLIMBING A SMALL HILL IN NORMAL TRAFFIC AT NORMAL SPEEDS. I CONSTANTLY HAVE TO USE THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION TO MAKE THE TRUCK DOWNSHIFT OR I HAVE TO PRESS ON THE GRASS IN ORDER TO BRING THE RPM UP A LITTLE HIGHER USING MORE FUEL THAN REQUIRED. THIS IN ITSELF IS DANGEROUS SINCE I AM IN THEN MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC. WHEN I PURCHASED THE TRUCK NONE OF THE RECALL WERE ON CARAFE NOR DID THE DEALER INFORM ME THAT THIS VEHICLE TYPE AND MODEL HAS ALREADY HAD SEVERAL RECALLS AFFECTING ITS PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY. THERE IS ALSO SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE DEFROST SYSTEM WHETHER ITS ON HEAT OR COOL. THERE IS A RATTLING NOISE THAT CAN BE HEARD OVER THE FAN NOISE WHEN THE VEHICLE AIR CONDITIONER IS SWITCH TO THE DEFROST MODE. I AM TRULY DISAPPOINTED AND VERY CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY.

    (3RD) - OCCURRENCE OF THE FOLLOWING SAME PROBLEM....THE HEATER AND DEFROSTER SYSTEMS IN MY NEW 2015 GMC CANYON PRODUCE ONLY COLD AIR, REGARDLESS OF THE SETTINGS. THIS CREATES A FOG FILM ON THE INSIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD MAKING THE CANYON INOPERABLE DUE TO LACK OF VISIBILITY. THE GMC DEALER HAS ALREADY REPLACED SEVERAL "HEATER/DEFROSTER", BUT THE NEW SYSTEM CONTINUES TO FAIL. THE LACK OF HEAT PROBLEM OCCURS AT ALL TIMES (I.E. MANUAL KEY START, REMOTE START, COLD ENGINE START, WARM ENGINE START, ETC.)

    I own a 2015 GMC Canyon that developed repeated and serious fuel-system and engine problems beginning around 56,000 miles. The vehicle experienced fuel contamination (water in the fuel system), multiple fuel injectors failing and sticking open, repeated misfires across several cylinders, and engine stalling/shutdown while driving. The truck was towed multiple times and repaired repeatedly by an authorized GMC dealership. Repairs included injector replacements, fuel pipe replacement, fuel-system cleaning, and related work. Technician notes show that broader repairs were recommended but not fully authorized, and the same problems continued to return. Despite the dealership later stating the vehicle was repaired, there is no written safety certification, no documented fuel-system integrity testing, and no GM engineering clearance confirming the vehicle is safe to operate. Because of the repeated failures and risk of fire or loss of power, I do not feel the vehicle is safe to drive. I personally paid over $6,000 out of pocket for fuel contamination repairs and spark plug replacement (not including towing), after warranty coverage denied some repairs as “water damage.” The vehicle has been unsafe or inoperable for extended periods. I am reporting this because repeated fuel-system failures and engine shutdown present a serious safety risk and may affect other vehicles of the same model.

    Stabiltrak system stops working randomly all the time. It is seemingly random. It can do it as soon as I crank the truck, but more commonly it happens when I am driving. The ABS also will cause the truck to pull harder in one direction either left or right randomly. I have to put pressure on the steering will in the opposite direction to keep the vehicle in the middle of the lane. Stabiltrak sensor 1st went off around October 2023. It typically doesn't come back on immediately if I power cycle the truck. No accident to report yet but when the power steering does no work while I'm driving, it is extremely hard to turn.

    MY 215 EXTENDED CAB, LONG BED GMC CANYON SLT HAS 13,000 MILES AND NO ACCIDENTS OR HARD DRIVING (ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY DRIVEN ON THE ROAD) WITH SOME SHORT HAULING OF LOADS LOCALLY (1500 LBS OR LESS). NO MAJOR WORK HAS BEEN DONE TO THE ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION. TODAY (9 OCT 17), I WAS TAKING A SHORT DRIVE TO HOME DEPOT FROM MY HOUSE (~6 MI), ALMOST IMMEDIATELY I BEGAN TO SMELL A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE (TRAVELLED HALF A BLOCK)...I HAD JUST DRIVEN THE TRUCK ON FRIDAY TO WORK AND SMELLED NO ODOR, SO I THOUGHT IT MUST BE A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. BUT THE ODOR PERSISTED AND WAS WORST WAITING AT STOPLIGHTS. I SMELLED GAS AGAIN ON THE WAY BACK HOME AND NEW IT MUST BE MY TRUCK. AFTER I PARKED I POPPED THE HOOD WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING AND SMELLED NO GAS, UPON RETURNING TO THE CAB TO SHUT THE ENGINE OFF, I SMELLED STRONG GAS AGAIN, AND LOOKED DOWN UNDER MY TRUCK AND SAW GAS SLOWLY DRIPPING ON THE DRIVEWAY. I SHUT THE TRUCK OFF AND THE GAS CONTINUED TO STREAM SLOWLY DOWN THE SIDE OF THE TANK - IT APPEARS TO BE ORIGINATING FROM THE WHERE THE FUEL LINES CONNECT TO THE IN-TANK FUEL PUMP ON TOP OF THE FUEL TANK. I COULD REACH THE TOP OF THE FILLER TUBE WITH MY HAND AND IT WAS DRY, WHEN I REMOVED THE FUEL CAP, THERE WAS NO PRESSURE SO THE FUEL MUST BE COMING FROM THE FUEL FEED LINE OR THE RETURN LINE CONNECTIONS. AFTER A FEW MINUTES WITH THE ENGINE OFF THE LEAK STOPPED. THE TANK WAS NOT OVERFLOWING BECAUSE IT WAS ONLY HALF FULL. I PLAN TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER IN ST LOUIS FOR REPAIRS. I THOUGHT THE LINES MIGHT HAVE BEEN CHEWED BY AN ANIMAL (SQUIRREL), BUT THE LINES ARE STEEL. I WILL FIND OUT MORE FROM THE DEALER ONCE IT IS REPAIRED.

    While driving my 2015 GMC Canyon my power steering service light goes on and I have no power steering making difficult and dangerous to control my vehicle. Also, at the same a service stabilitrak light goes on. I'm aware of a recall for this problem as been issued for 2015 GMC trucks but so reason my truck is not included in this recall even though I am experiencing the same problems for which the recall was issued. I have taken my vehicle to a GMC service center and am satisfied with their findings. I feel this is a dangerous situation as my steering goes out without warning which could lead to a crash. I think my vehicle should be included in this recall and repaired with no cost to myself.
