sorry man, but I see nothing wrong in the vid

 

All I see on page 188 of the owners manual is:
"You need to break in new tires for approximately 300 miles... During this time your vehicle may exhibit some unusual driving characteristics.
Avoid driving too fast during the first 1,000 miles .... Vary your speed frequently and change up through the gears early. Do not labor the engine.
Do not tow during the first 1,000 miles."

I had my 2013 at the track the first Saturday after picking it up -- so changed the gears frequently and varied my speed a lot that day! LOL

I don't think that you are hurting anything driving it hard OP and even getting to the redline. But with it going to 8,000 as you described I would take it in and have it checked over. It shouldn't be revving like you described.

 

Here is the deal, that video is of someone with a properly functioning automatic it's not mine.

I'm going to do my very best to not push it at all until I get past 1000 miles.

What has happened on my car is when I floor it, instead of catching 2nd gear or 3rd it just keeps going to 8000 and when it did happen I could tell it was not right and let go of the gas and it still kept climing. What I expect is once the break in period is done it will perform like the video but if it doesn't it's going to the dealer.

 

Plain and simple. If your car is revving to 8000RPM something is wrong! Don't wait to get it looked at. The rev limiter is not doing it's job if the car is revving that high!!!

 

Are you sure it's the Rev limiter and not an issue with it shifting gears which would of course prevent it from going that high?

 

Good lord man. It's free to get it looked at. If something is wrong it's covered. If nothing is wrong youll have piece of mind.

 

Take it in, my 3.7 shifts at 7.500 but, I have a tune.
