Power Train problem

The contact stated the drivetrain is leaping as the car starts and as you start to shift. No accidents that led up to this and the dealer has looked at it several (unknown quanity) times. The powertrain seems to be sending power from the front to the back of the car too quickly and this could lead to future failures and a safety risk.
