My favorite trailer brake controller option for a 2021 GMC Canyon is the Curt Echo Mobile Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180 because you don't have to splice into any wires, drill into the dash, or give up leg room. It simply plugs into the trailer connector and works with an app on your phone. That said, you don't have to have your phone up for the controller to work, it still functions as normal so if your phone dies there is no issue. You can also add the Manual Override Button part # C83HR for a more traditional touch.
