Default Redlines?

Well, when im driving my car.. it sometimes redlines, for no reason, we had it checked out but there isnt anything wrong with it, does this means im accelerating wrong? or is this something every Mirage sports coupe does?? I know i sound like an idiot, but my car shouldnt be doing that, lemme know if anyone knows whats wrong with it! Thankkss

I'm assuming it's an automatic? Sure sounds like a bad tranny to me.
