Engine/transmission problem.........

It's a 2012 Sport, 30K on the speedo. Auto trans. Starting from a dead start I can make it across the intersection just fine. Other times (On average, twice a day.) I get across the intersection and lose power. Engine rpm drops to idle and floor boarding it does nothing. Pull over to the curb and bang the go pedal a few times and things return to normal. It has happened a few times trying to speed up from a 35 mph which can really be interesting with other cars behind me on their brakes or trying to swerve around. Never happens when my wife is driving. I've got a ten pound sledge hammer that's just itching for a go at it!

Anybody have this happen to them?? RichT
