Fiat Selecta - Auto Transmission - aft

My wife has a Fiat Selecta which suffers from an occasional loss of transmission power when it has come to a halt. When she tries to move away the engine revs but their is no drive. The only way she appears to be able to resolve the problem is to put the transmission in Park, switch off the ignition and then restart the engine when the car moves away in the normal manner. Can anyone suggest the cause and a solution to this problem?

Sorry can't help, but perhaps post your query on a Fiat forum where there are more likely to be Fiat experts. Suggest you include model (assume Punto), year and mileage details as well.
