What is usually the problem when a 1996 Dodge Intrepid starts to jerk when accelerating?
Sounds like the Transmission Fluid is low. You probably have a leak. You should top off the fluid and fix the gasket or where-ever the leak is coming from.
I had this problem once when I had my first car about 20 years ago. Back then, I didn't know how cars worked. It started with small jerks - or acceleration delays when I would press the gas pedal in drive. I didn't know what it was. Day by day, the delays got longer. The car would still drive because the heat of operation would make the fluid expand enough to turn the torque converter. But eventually, it all leaked out and my torque converter burnt out.
I got in the car one fine day, put it in drive and went no-where. The pity was that a guy wanted to buy it for $350. And if it would have worked, I would have almost doubled my money.
It wasn't a huge loss because I bought the car for $175 and had it for 6 months- but it taught me a lesson- learn how cars work, or things like this will happen.
What else can I help you with?
Why does your 1994 Grand AM 2.3L start to stutter when accelerating Idles fine just heavy accelerating it starts bucking?
Hey ya i have a 1994 grand am and i was having this same problem. What i did what replace the spark plugs. After i did this i took the car and and when i floor it no longer stutters when accelerating.

When a car starts moving faster and faster every second what are you doing?
accelerating
When accelerating car starts puttering?
It is very likely you have something wrong with your engine.
Why does my mercury villager make a loud noise when accelerating that stops when you take your foot off the pedal?
If this is a general noise, it could be the transaxle. When you are accelerating, the engine is pushing the gears, and when you let go of the pedal, the vehicle starts to shift back down. If this is an engine noise, it could be predetonation or a valve problem.
Is a bullet going through the barrel of a rifle accelerating?
Yes. It starts at zero- and when fired, begins to accelerate until it reaches it's greatest speed- usually before getting to the muzzle of the gun.
What force starts a marble accelerating down a hill?
If nobody pushed it, then it had to be either gravity or the wind.
Will a bad cam sensor cause a 95 Intrepid with a 3.3 liter engine to stumble like you just ran something over and then return to normal?
Oh I had this problem in a 97 Intrepid and it turned out to be the crank sensor located on the bell housing. Fix it quick...soon the car will stall for no reason...sometimes it starts right back up...sometimes it doesn't!
How do you retrieve the codes to a 1999 Dodge Intrepid?
Scanner,is the only means to re-set trouble codes quickly, although after 30 engine starts the Controller will automaticly "erase"the code(s) if it doesn't see a problem with that circuit anymore...
What is wrong with your car if it starts to rev really high and won't stop accelerating?
You need to check the throttle positioning sensor.
What causes a 1995 Dodge Intrepid to stop running while driving and after 15 to 20 minutes to over night it starts?
time to get a watch! :)
When you start the ignition the engine starts then immediately after the engine shuts off Does anyone know what could be the problem?
It is a common problem for shevy. Usually the Fuel regulator. Or for other vehicles it could be a dirty fuel filter
