So I was on my way to work today and as I went to get on to the onramp the power just dissapears, like I had just slipped it into neutral, all revs and no power. So I coast to the side of the road, put it into park, then drive and attempt to be on my way. Again, the same thing happens, like i was in neutral again. It just revs.
I shut the car off, thinking that it may be electronic. Once again, neutral and drive do the same thing. The odd thing is reverse still worked.

So I call AAA, get it towed to the dealer, and waited for a call.

Later in the day they called me and said they couldn't replicate the problem, and I can pick it up tomorrow.

Any 7AT owners have anything like this happen? An before it's asked, I'm sure that I didn't accidently hit it into neutral or anything like that, I made sure it was in the proper 'D' gate before retrying it. Manual mode wasn't working either.

I just hope this doesn't happen again right after I pick it up.
