Description of the problem | I drive a 2009 gmc canyon. When driving i've notice that when hitting a hard bump, sometimes turning or accelerating quickly whether on the highway or street, the truck shuts off causing the power steering and power brakes useless and very hard to apply. Sometimes this happens several times in the course of one trip and happens at a variety of different speeds. This is an ongoing problem. The icon for the theft deterrent appears. Then i have to quickly put the truck in neutral in order to restart the truck. The date below is the most recent day it has happened. This has become a very serious cause of concern for me and my family. I'm not sure if this is related to the ignition recall or any other recall. This problem happens mostly when i hit a hard bump in the road, again at various speeds. I've taken it to my mechanic, but he was unable to duplicate the problem. I've decided to ask the dealer if they know of any related problems and see what response i get, but i also wanted to file a complaint to find out if anyone else is having this issue. If you are aware of any other complaints related to this issue, can you please contact me so that i may resolve the problem. I don't want to take this issue lightly because the life of my family is involved. If you have any other questions please contact me, my name is [xxx] and my phone number is [xxx].
