I thought maybe this was normal for the car as I haven't driven it in traffic before... However when the traffic opened up I hit the gas and got nothing.... the car started to shake and buck violently...

At this point I pulled over and shut the car off... When I turned it back on it drove fine....

Is this a one time freak occurrence? Anyone have any idea as to what this can be? Almost feels like the transmission is shifting gears insequentially.

Has anyone experienced something similar? I know if I bring it to the dealer I won't be able to recreate the problem... I think I will drive it tomorrow to work to see how things go.

The car literally has 100 miles on it...
Just wondering what temps. your seeing (engine temps.) when this happens?
