| The truck experiences engine stutter at low idle (>1000rpms) varying from 1000 rpms to 200 rpms with felt loss of power steering at low rpms. at lower rpms, typically at stops or low idle turns, the truck will stall with loss of power steering and brake control (tapping the brake equals slamming the brake). recently, the issue is now becoming more frequent and now occurring while making low idle turns into traffic causing a stall. the only resolution is to drop the truck in neutral, in traffic, and restart hoping the bump start will occur on the first try before being hit from behind. i have called gm service shops, the service center in detroit as well as looked for recalls online and there are no official postings or knowledge of these problems despite numerous individual accounts found in gmc/chevy forums. this issue is a dangerous issue in my opinion and needs to be addressed. *tr | |||

| My 2007 gmc canyon is suffering from the problems described in service bulletin #07123a, engine intake valve seat/misfire. the extended warranty granted to those in #07123a was for model years 2004-2006. my vehicle was built after this time frame but is evidence that the problem still exists. gm should do the right thing and extend the service bulletin to include model year 2007. the vehicle has 48,864 miles on it and i was quoted $2,500 plus tax to make the repairs at brotherton gmc/cadillac in renton, wa. | |||

| Over fused dash wiring, causing connectors to melt and resistors to blow in a/c and heat fan control system on a truck with only 10,000 miles ! causing a source for fire and toxic gas in cabin! this required a connector and a resistor to be replaced, at a cost of $306.13, but gmc did not lower the fused rating in truck. | |||
