engine power reduced

I just purchased this truck in August so I could have a dependable car, but I have been stranded more in these five months than my entire driving history! This car cuts off every day! It has shut off while I’ve been driving on the interstate on numerous occasions and now the hazards lights won’t even come on. This is my first GMC vehicle and more than likely my last!

Update from Jan 5, 2020: I’ve taken this car to two Mechanics who stated they do not know what is wrong with the truck. The truck goes to 2 mph, starts jerking, then shuts off if it doesn’t just shut off.

I was driving my car out of nowhere it said "engine power reduced" then it started shaking and it cut off. This is the second time it has done that and I had my kids in the f*cking car with me. I took my car to two body shops and they found nothing wrong. They need to get this situation fixed asap. Apparently I heard this isn't a new problem with GMC Terrain and their cars.
