Expert Reply:
I do have an option for you but hardwired trailer brake controllers aren't ideal for a 2022 GMC Canyon as they will require you to splice into the vehicle and run wires throughout. I highly recommend going with the Curt Echo Wireless Trailer Brake Controller part # C51180 instead since it just plugs into the trailer connector and you're done. I did a review on this if you'd like to check it out below.
