vibration in gas peddle

I get a little vibration in the gas peddle when the auto trans shifts into 2nd gear... Does anyone else have this vibration?

Mine did it for the first time this morning accellerating on a hill merging onto a freeway towing my 5'er. Very weird.

its normal

The accell pedal is "fly by wire". there is no cable that directly links the pedal to the engine. What you are feeling is the servo in the accellerator assembly "derating" your thorttle position for the shift event. Its the only way the engineers could make 600+ lb feet of torque and not grenade the auto trans. Its normal, mine has done it since day one and continues to do so. Dont worry.

One thing you guy's mite want to look at is the automatic fan. I noticed mine had this funny vibration all of a sudden. Sure enough, it was the fan when it kicked on.
