That's the rev limiter. It's fine

Really? Is that the rev limiter for automatic TLs? I'm pretty sure my 6MT TL can easily exceed 5,500 RPMs.

My car did the same thing and was due to it being low on oil. Mine used about 2qrts during 5k interval. Now I check it more often and zero issues since.

Is it safe to assume your car has an automatic transmission?

yes auto trans

Being an auto trans it could be a number of things. Not sure if it will throw a wrench light for a trans issue but it is a good idea to have the car checked for any codes, from my experience you can have active codes but no light showing.

I believe if in park it won’t allow it to exceed 5500K or 5K!? Not positive, but I remember reading something about it a long time ago. I could be wrong.

I believe I read somewhere the governor when the transmission is in neutral or park is more like 3,200 RPMs. Don't remember where I read that.
