Try the adaptive learning reset procedure
and recalibrate your gas pedal.

Adaptive learning reset by removing the negative nattery cable for 20 min or so.

Gas pedal reset is turning the key on, wait until the dash icons go out, press the
pedal all the way to the floor and then release it. Turn key off.
