2011 Chevrolet Tahoe Engine Problems

“Just purchased truck it has not been 30 days and the service suspension system light came on and when I drive the car will accelerate faster on its own. Which was very scary with kids in the car now my engine light is on plus traction control and it sometimes won't go over 70 MPH. I feel like I was told truck was in great condition but it's not and scared it might accelerate on its on with kids in car. …”
