GMC Canyon owners have reported 2 problems related to oil pump (under the engine and engine cooling category). The most recently reported issues are listed below. Also please check out the statistics and reliability analysis of GMC Canyon based on all problems reported for the Canyon.
Gm had a recall on the 3. 6 lgz equipped in trucks in canada. Cold weather caused oil pump to over pressurizing of oil and damage to oil cooler and lines. Leaking oil in to engine compartment and on roadway. This has happened to me twice now once in March of 2018 and now again in November 2019. Doing research this is a common complaint. I would like national highway traffic safety department to look into this an do similar recall as canada. Here in minnesota it gets as cold or colder than canada.

Vehicle has 6600 miles- while normal driving around town, noticed a gasoline/oil smell. After being parked for 5 minutes recieved a warning message to turn off the engine due to low oil pressure, then noticed a large pool of oil spreading under the engine bay of the truck. This is the second time oil has leaked from the engine, first repair performed by the dealer was to replace an oil cooler hose. Contacted dealer service department, they said they had never seen this issue before. Contacted dealer where truck was purchased and they have repaired this issue multiple times by swapping the oil pump for one with lower flow rates (similar to/same as gm recall #n1821800260, which doesn't yet apply to this model somehow).
