I was stopped at a red light in the afternoon on the day in question. Once the light turned green, I pushed the accelerator on to hear a whining/slipping feeling out of the engine area. This has happened at least 2 times on different days.

Periodically, when the car is started from a stopped position, the engine will rev and the car does not go. Seems like something in transmission is slipping. Have taken to the dealer and they cannot locate a problem.
