Problem overview

Some GMC Canyon owners report experiencing paint chipping issues, particularly on the running boards, which may be attributed to inadequate coating or poor quality paint application. To mitigate this problem, some owners suggest installing clear paint protection film, using solid running boards or those from reputable brands like Dee Zee NXT, and applying a spray-on bed liner to safeguard the vehicle's leading edges. It is crucial to address paint chipping promptly to prevent rust formation, as this can lead to more serious exterior issues. Taking proactive measures to protect affected areas can help maintain the appearance and integrity of the GMC Canyon.
