Invest in a new pedal....

Seriously though, that's what I wound up doing. The pins wear out the back of the plastic pedal over time. Or depending on how bad the wear is, you might be able to use some sort of filler to tighten those holes up again.

I figured that. I also thought about putting some self-tappers down through the very bottom portion of the pedal. It seems like a new pedal might wear out pretty quickly too.

When I got my truck it didn't even have a gas pedal and I actually prefer driving it like that.

Some self tappers might work.
