Whenever I start my car and give it gas to drive somewhere, the car starts shaking when I push gas, check engine light came on around the same time as well.

Well, the first thing to do would be to scan it to see what codes are stored in the system. I also wouldn't drive it until it is repaired, shaking and check engine light generally means it is misfiring and that can do a lot more damage than other problems. The vehicle should still be under the 10-year 100,000-mile warranty as well so it should be covered unless it was a salvaged vehicle. I would call the local dealer and give them the information about the car. Then they should repair it.
