You need to get the car scanned for codes go to the auto parts store and have them scan the car for codes.Write down the codes they give you.Post the exact code numbers you have not code descriptions.So like a issue with your electronic throttle control system.Also what size engine do you have?

i had my car towed today and the mechanic said it needed a new computer....does this sound legit? talked with another mechanic and he said that he has not replaced a computer in a GM vehicle for 11 years....what do you recommend?

It is very unusual.
