Sounds sort of like a fuel issue - have you changed your filter recently?

All of the sudden, the car just stopped accelerating and it slammed me forward into the seatbelt.
Didn't stall or make any strange noises. I let off the gas, and it recovered from any temper tantrum it was having and acted like it's normal self after that.
Any ideas? I know the automatic is close to being pooched, and that's the only thing I can think of that would be causing any issues.
