Description of the problem	My 2009 vw gti with dsg very briefly lost power while attempting to accelerate on the highway. The engine revved, but the transmission felt as if it were not in gear. This lasted 2-3 seconds, during a merge. Had there been fast-moving traffic closer behind, i could have easily been rear-ended. Lifting off the accelerator and re-applying seemed to get the car back in gear. This was the only occurrence. The car has not been taken for service; i am submitting this complaint in response to the nhtsa's investigation into vw's dsg.
