What causes the car to randomly jerk during acceleration
What is your question?
My car will randomly have a single jerk during acceleration and when I shift to the next gear it will jerk once then be fine. It feels like something dragging the car back then it breaks loose. My check engine light came on and stayed on till the next morning, when I was going to get it checked I had the jerk and the light went off. I have bad tire rods right now but that will be fixed soon. I've replaced pretty much everything else around the engine. It has 200000 miles
