I have a 2003 Sante Fe and My SUV is AWD, it has recently started jerking in the back like someone has hit me from behind, happens when I am slowing down, or taking off. Does not happen when I am driving normal speed. It has been put on the rack and looked at the U joints where good. Not sure what this is. I have had CVS joints replaced, I have had a lot of problems like this with this car. Thanks if you can help

If this is a limited slip differential in rear you might try an additive for it. GM makes it as well as ford. And then if that cures it it should be ok after that. If not have the diff checked bearing or gear wear. It could also be a center support bearing problem.
