If it's hitting the rev limiter when driving, then you need a new transmission range sensor because the computer thinks it's in Park/Neutral. You can verify that with a good scan tool.

It should be right around the shifter shaft.

You need to use a scan tool to see what gear the PCM thinks it's in.
