Gasoline Fuel System problem #1

Vehicle suddenly accelatered and gas pedal stuck at about 65 miles per hour. I immediately took my foot off the accelerator and begin trying to brake the vehicle. At the first available opportunity, I pulled to the side of the expressway. While keeping both feet on the brake, I placed the transmission into park. The vehicle continued to rev rpms at the equalivent of about 65 miles per hour. I used my right hand to pull the accelerator up and the engine returned to a normal idle. I noticed no evidence of the floor mat being on the accelerator or in a position to cause the sudden acceleration or the continued engine rapid rpms. The same day, the accelerator stuck a second time and required me to pull the gas pedal up in order to get the engine to return to normal rpms.

Tank Assembly problem #2

2010 chevy Traverse lt gas gauge is all over the place,was on the empty mark with about 1/8 tank gas left but gauge read full or my gauge to not read correctly; after filling, the gauge would not move the opposite would occur also; the gauge would show the tank with more gas than what I actually had. Hey replaced the float and still not working in fact it's worse.
