Default Traction Control Flashing when Shifting into Drive

Once in a while when I shift from P into D, the traction control light flashes on the dash and the car won't move. Once I shift into P and back to D, everything is fine. Has anybody run into this before?

Yes and it will disengage after a few seconds.
