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.
i always do this and never have that problem. before i knew about this, every auto i had would do this
