Camaro won't go pas 3500 rpm

My 2011 ss won't go past 3500 rpm once I get in second gear and on. I have an slp lm 2 axle back but I don't think that is the problem bc it has worked fine with it. It's almost like I'm hitting a rev limiter?

Also I'm at 1900 miles.
Thanks

Drop your automatic down to "S" for Sport Mode. This allows you to hang in each gear longer to get the high-end torque. If that doesn't work, then tap the TapSHIFT buttons on the back of your steering wheel to row through the gears yourself.

I assume your car is an automatic, and you have not tried this. If you have, or it's a manual, then i guess you got a big problem on your hands.
