2008 Camry Stutters at 40 MPH

Hey guys,
My first post on this forum. I searched around but could not find any answers, please let me know if there is a topic already on this subject.

This is about a 2008 XLE V6 with around 8000 miles. The car is very hesitant till it gets up to 40 mph. At 40 if I let go of the gas pedal, it slows down really fast. I have noticed this problem consistantly at 40 mph. Also, when I approach a light the car cant seem to make up its mind and behaves like a crazy horse slowing and speeding as it slows.

I would like to get any opinions, solutions, try at home remedies (if available) before I take her in. Please let me know if I need to adjust my driving habits, since this is my second car and first being a 99 corolla. I really love the car and would hate for some mechanic to tinker with it only to find out there was nothing wrong with it in the first place.

Thanks
JKO
