  {black}:excitement: Hey Scotty,

Now don’t get mad…but I bought a brand new GM vehicle.

*shocking I know

Anyway it’s a brand new 2021 GMC Canyon Elevation with the 3.6 v6. everything so far seemed alright when driving it but with only 200 miles on it I noticed something. Every time I turn on the A/C I feel some vibration near the engine and I fear that something is causing strain on the engine. Could it be either the Fans or the Compressor, what do you think it could be?

It's probably vibration from the compressor combined with fans turning on and the additional load it imposes on the engine. May well be normal on that vehicle given what GM quality is like these days.


Take it to the dealer , and when they say "they all do that" ask to start up a truck with that V6 on their lot to prove it. This is why you bought a new truck with a warranty. You should not be able to FEEL vibration in a new truck.
