Well got some good news and bad news for me. Good news is I fixed the buzzing problem. I unscrewed the two nuts/bolts holding the pedal mechanism, and put some foam padding w/ doubled sided tape directly onto the pedal mount. I didn't have any felt around, so used foam padding instead, tested and working great, no buzzing at all speeds.

The bad news is that while putting the pedal back on, I tightened one of the nuts too much and the bolt literally broke in half. It's now being held on by just one nut/bolt. I wiggled it around and it seemed to hold steady, but it just doesn't seem safe. I'm thinking I can bring it in to the dealership and say one of the bolts broke off after stepping on the pedal the wrong way? Or say the pedal feels loose and if they can look at it and they'll see that a bolt broke off? I'll make sure to take off the foam padding first so they don't think I messed with it. Anybody have other suggestions for getting this replaced under warranty?
