Arranging the work for the Canyon
For battery service on the 2017 GMC Canyon, CarmaCars arranges a trusted shop and never does the work itself. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.
Details the shop needs
The shop may ask for the VIN to order the right parts. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.8L 4-cylinder turbo. Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. The 2.8L 4-cylinder turbo with rear-wheel drive is the powertrain to look at.
How the request works
We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. Your request goes to a person, who arranges a trusted shop or gives you its name. We tell you plainly if we do not know a shop for the job.
Driving while yours is at the shop
A rental from us keeps you moving while the shop has your car. A rental keeps your week on track during the repair. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
Between shop visits
Switch to winter tires before the first snow, and back in spring. Have the cabin air filter changed on the maker's schedule. Keep the spare, the jack and the wheel lock key where you can find them.
A short checklist
Ask how the shop takes payment before you pick the car up. If the car must stay overnight, ask where it will be kept. If you want to see the old parts, ask for them back.
Make a request
Ask, and we tell you plainly what we can arrange.
