Hey everyone,

 

My friend just bought a 2019 Canyon Denali a few months ago and on a recent road trip we both noticed a squeak coming from the rear of the cab when going over bumps. He couldn't figure out where it was so I figured I'd try this forum to see if anyone knows where it might be coming from if anyone has dealt with this before. It sounds to me like it's coming from the rear seat behind the driver.

Don't attempt to repair any squeaks yourself while the vehicle is under warranty.  You may create an issue that will create an issue with warranty.  Get your friend to take the truck in for any squeaks/rattles as soon as you can.  This will create a paper trail that may come in handy later on.  Not saying you will have issues in the future with dealers, just saying that while the truck is eligible for free repairs, take them up on their offer.  Try to find the correct procedure to create the noise/rattle every time.  He may also want to create a list of any issues he has found, or any issues passengers have found.  Passengers tend to not be blinded by new vehicle pride.

i have a 2016 gmc canyon, that makes a loud squeak when going over speed bumps, i have taken it to gm dealerships and they have replaced calipers, caliper slide pins and leaf springs, applied non squeak grease and the back of my brake pads. and i still have the concern, they told me they called gm tech force and all they have to say is its an issue they are researching still to try and solve. im curious if there is anyone out there that might have had or fixed this issue.

In Dec 2018 I bought a 2018 Canyon SLT. A few months later i started hearing a squeak coming from under the truck. After going to 2 dealers, they could not solve it. It sounded like rusty bed springs when going over bumps. Today i got underneath the truck. The parking brake cables located just under the drivers side rear door were rubbing against a steel bracket. I moved them a little and wrapped them with duct tape. No more squeak. Amazing. The second dealer wanted to replace the leaf spring mounts. I hope this helps.

I have GMC 2016 SLT (30000 mi ) with similar squeak and it's driving me insane.  I have tried just about everything,going into dealer next week(will let you you know what they find)

The dealer r replaced lower intermediate shaft on steering (pt#84039333) back in 2017 (could it have come loose?) it seemed to work foe awhile.. I think I've tried almost  everything , but like I said I'm taking it to the dealer next Tuesday.I tested it the other day and it makes that darn noise in a bad road at 10 to 15 miles per hr and sounds almost coming from front on drivers side. Go figure. Thanks for the input . Stevie

I don't have a solution, but a suggestion. Have your friend flip the rear seat backs down, then drive around and see if the squeak is still heard. If not, then the connection points of the seat are the culprit. If it still squeaks try raising the rear seat bottoms and doing the same test. If neither of these changes affect the outcome, then it may be something external.

Just bought a 2021 Canyon AT4 and I have this squeak coming from behind the rear seats. Sounds like plastic rubbing against each other or something. Has anyone resolved this issue?? It gets super annoying man.

The plastic rub rails on the top of the bed sides if you shake that it's squeaks I think it has something to do with that I was thinking a silicone to prevent it from moving

I had this on my 2019 Colorado coming from the rear axle. it was 2 separate things, the rear brake pads have little tabs either side that hold them in place and over time they polish themselves in the caliper causing the squeak. use some grease on the tabs to clear it up or do what i did and replace the entire brake system with a big brake kit from Alcon. the other is the leaf sping bushings, not much to do there but lube occasionally or replace.

The quick release clamps that hold the rear seat backs to the rear of the cab squeaked on my truck. Noticed the paint worn off the metal hook posts one day when I had the rear seat backs folded down. I wrapped the metal hook posts with electrical tape, pushed the seat backs into position and the squeak went away, been squeak free several years.

    • You could try a used 1, they used that engine in the Astro vans, Plenty of them in the boneyard. Look for a wrecked or rotted 1 so the chance that it was scrapped for that reason and not a mechanical issue will be greater
    • Google converting 98 4.3 spider injection to carburetor if all else fails. 
    • That computer lies!
    • My centre console USB ports haven’t been working and the one in the glovebox is starting to act up. When I plug my phone into the cord the radio will go black and stop playing, and the CarPlay is inconsistent.   I checked the fuses and they were fine. I changed the USB port out and still nothing. Hoping for some advice on what I should be looking at.  
    • The truck is a 1995 Chevrolet S10 Blazer, 4.3 VIN "W" engine. :cracks knuckles:   On a whim - because I needed a headache - this truck was for sale so I stopped to take a look. Doesn't run. Well, it does, but barely. Long crank, choppy idle, bad misfire(s), it REEKS of fuel. I can DO this..I'm thinking. Diamond in the rough. One owner until last year. A young guy is selling it, he bought it 6 months ago. It stranded him more than once, he's got a newborn. It was in the shop 10 days ago and he "thinks" they said it needs a new fuel injection system. He can't put any more money into it, needs it gone. I was thinking of upgrading my Macbook, which is a total want, not a need. For less than the price of a new laptop I can have fun for months tinkering on this truck and enjoying it. I'm taking this truck home. The guy was beyond thrilled, his wife was there, she thanked me profusely, I could tell they were hurting. They seemed like good people in a bind.   Some parts, a wash, maybe a set of tires, and I can have a few months of fun and then turn it for beer money (or the next project).   Sure enough, there's a work order from a shop last week in the INCHES of paperwork on this truck dating back to when the first owner bought it. They put a new distributor in it, fuel injection work describes basically opening the plenum and putting it back together. He said he couldn't afford any more work so he had them button it up and that's when he put it up for sale.   I'm not well versed in 4.3. I did discover 1995 uses the 1992-1995 SCPI "Spider" injector which is riddled with issues from splitting lines, clogged or cracked poppet valves and plastic spider legs that crumble over time. Cool. I'll just order me a ne---. Oh, the auto parts store doesn't have it? Rock Auto doesn't have it. eBay? $$$$$$ for used. These are UNAVAILABLE period end of story unless you know "a guy" who's still got one in a box somewhere.   Can't upgrade to the '96-'04 injector, it's a different plenum, wiring/pinout and sensor config.   There are a few kinda "know a guy" -guy rebuild services for these injectors out there for about $350. Okay, Okay... I'd like to know if anyone has used them? Anyone got a lead on these crappy 92-95 spiders?   I also don't want to send MY spider to Narnia and back without knowing if that's truly the problem. I guess I'll need to pull apart the plenum and do some digging.   I was also thrown for a loop. This 1995 model year truck has an OBD-II connector. The interface is decidedly not OBD-II. I can read and reset trouble codes and view live data, but there's not a lot of data. Like misfire count and on what cylinder, that's not there. It's OBD-1.5.   Nothing is ever easy. Now it makes sense why this guy wanted to disappear this thing for cheap. I'm guessing the shop told him the injector is toast, the part is unobtainable and they're not going to sort sending the thing to a rando offering rebuild service on craigslist, and the kid likely can't be without a working car for 3 weeks even if they'd facilitate that.   Experience with these early SCPI's? Stories? Things to check? Sympathy? (..Nah...)   This can sit until I sort it. But I haven't had a problem with a vehicle I couldn't easily solve in a long time.
