2012 GMC CANYON — Complaint #1317390

Open-data reference.

NHTSA Complaint about SUSPENSION:FRONT:HUB filed September 14, 2016

NHTSA complaint #1317390 (ODI reference 10906420) concerns a 2012 GMC CANYON and was filed on September 14, 2016. The owner reports the failure occurred on September 13, 2016. The vehicle had 161,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Georgia based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as suspension:front:hub, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.

The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.

Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same GMC CANYON cohort independently describe similar suspension:front:hub failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2012 GMC CANYON shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
