2016 GMC Canyon Questions & Answers

  • How much can I tow in a GMC Canyon? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.

The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
