There is a driving problem with a new car when starting it with a cold engine. The vehicle bucks and jerks when driving at slow speed until the engine is warmed up. The vehicle does not produce trouble codes. Therefore, the dealer claims it is operating normally although the jerking and bucking is quite disruptive and not at all normal.
