Automatic car. Starts well. Can put car into any gear but it does not engage, pressing accelerator does not rev engine at all. when this happens the brake light is showing to be on on the dashboard but def not. If I turn engine off and restart car then it generally will run as normal. This has happened about twice a day for last couple of days. Car is serviced regularly, with no prior problems.
