Vibrations in 2018 Yaris iA

Hi, I recently got a 2018 Yaris iA sedan from Hertz, automatic transmission, 13,000 miles on it and passed a 100-point inspection (“Hertz Certified”). Everything great except from the start I’ve noticed a lot of vibration, occurring in two different situations, though perhaps they’re related.

First, the steering wheel vibrates uncomfortably at higher speeds, most particularly at 70-75mph.

Second, both the gas and brake pedals vibrate (at higher RPM), which makes longer drives uncomfortable because I can feel it in my foot and ankle. And this doesn’t have anything to do with actually depressing the pedal, since even if I just hover my foot over the brake or gas pedal I feel it vibrating. Particularly on the highway since I’ll be at 2 or sometimes 3 rpm.

I’m hoping the steering wheel issue can be fixed by getting my wheels balanced (or I hear getting them aligned can also fix such an issue?). But as for the pedals, I’m wondering if that’s just how the car is. Similar but less dramatic vibration can sometimes be felt when idling or when first starting the car.

Any advice on how I might get this fixed, if it is indeed fixable? What to have looked at?

Thank you.
