Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)The contact owns a 2023 GMC Canyon. The contact stated that while at a car wash, there was an abnormal sound coming from the roof. The contact inspected the vehicle and noticed that there was a dent in the roof panel. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed and repaired under Customer Service Program: 23-NA-209. After the repair, the vehicle was taken to the car wash and the same failure occurred. The vehicle was taken back to the same dealer where it was diagnosed a second time and the contact was informed that the repair could not be performed because the part was not available, and to report the failure to the NHTSA Hotline. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 1,800.
After each rain or hand car washing, the OEM sunroof has a gurgling sound when driving at speeds above 25 mph. This does not clear for miles, or over time (at least 1 day without water). Water appears to be passing through the seal into the drainage gutter, but not completely draining out through the drains. Its been in service twice to have the drain lines cleared, and the issue remains. This has been present on other car manufacturers as a "wind pressure issue" where the force of driving causes wind pressure to push what water hasn't drained back up into the sunroof. Fix was extending the drain lines at output. GMC unable to repair.
The roof of the vehicle crackles and pops when it is in the blowing section of an automatic car wash. We have never had any experience like this before. The roof of the truck is so flimsy that it was actually dented by the hard blowing of air. I don’t feel like this car is solidly constructed and safe.
