I have a 97 avenger and when I drive to the end of my street coming to a stop sign then when I apply the gas petal it jurks a little on the right passenger front like it grabbing or the brakes are not releasing like they should. My? Is what causes this and what do I need to look for to repair this issue. I put brand new rotors, brake calipers and brakes on the front & rear. It did not to this till I put the new parts on. I was thinking the whelk hub @ bearing is going bad but that's my guess. Please any advice would be appreciated.

First, a wheel bearing is usually noisy when they go bad. If you don't hear anything, chances are they are fine. As far as your problem, check to make sure motor mounts are in good condition. A broken or worn mount can make a clunk when the engine is first accelerated. Also, safely lift the front of the car to see if the brakes are releasing as soon as you let off the brake pedal.

Let me know what you find.
