The truck will lose power steering and power down. Several codes will come on. When I started researching this problem, I noticed that there is a recall that was put out for this very same problem but my vehicle is not listed as eligible for this recall. I don't understand why it would not be eligible. Can someone please let me know?

For months my gmc canyon will start first thing in the morning, I will drive up tp the first or second stop light and my truck will begin to shake and act like it will shut off. Sometime it will die other times it just shakes. I took it into the dealership and they could not resolve the issue. This usually occurs 2-3 times per week.
