Most owner's manuals state that on an automatic transmission cars to:
Park the vehicle
Put gear selector in Neutral
Set the Parking Brake
Let off the brake pedal
Set the gear selector to Park

The ones I have read state this to avoid the symptoms you have.

Otherwise take the car in for warranty.
This.

If your on a hill and put it into park and the hand brake you will get this. Happens to my cars on the driveway (which is a huge hill...) unless i let the handbrake engage first and then put it into park.
