Originally I was told it was a transmission problem even though I told them it didn't feel like the transmission was missing or the engine revving. The dealer continued to debug it as a transmission problem until the repair manager told the technician to drive the car with the "computer" plugged in to monitor real-time. So after 1.5hours of them debugging the problem (and a $130 bill for me for their debugging time), they told me it wasn't the transmission, but rather a bad engine coil and spark plug wires. So they replaced both at my expense even though I had to wait another hour for the coil part to arrive from another dealer. Per them the problem has been fixed...we'll see tomorrow when I drive it to work...!!
