The main issue is the transmission... It shudders. Now I have to change the oil every 10K miles on it, or it will start shuddering again. It first started when the truck had 50K or a little more miles in it. The issue was resolved, I thought... Then it did it again at 69K (Just out of the warranty). I called the dealership and they stated I had to pay if I wanted an oil change, and they could not do an oil flush even if I paid for it. So I said OK, I will take it to a mechanic, and I did and "fixed" the problem....

I am the owner of a 2020 canyon sle that was purchased in june of 2020. The vehicle has about 20,000 mile on it currently. I have been experiencing a "lag" on acceleration after coming to a stop. This feels like the transmission isn't down shifting all the way. At time when accelerating from a stop the truck will act as it is in a high gear then suddenly slam into a first gear. I have take my truck to jessup gmc in palm springs and they say the tech can not reproduce the problem. This sounds like the same issue the 2015-1019 models have in reference to bulletin: 18-na-355 dated august 2019
