below is the reply i got from other forum -

Symptoms indicate a possible fault with the transmission. The jerking could be harsh shifting and when slowing down, the clutches engages with a jerk. I believe it is more likely to be 2nd speed rather than 1st.

Usually when transmission problems occurs, the PCM would store a trouble code. Get a free scan done at Autozone to see if any trouble codes are stored in the PCM.

The PCM uses the TPS and VSS to control the upshifts/downshifts/overdive/lock-up-could be a sticking shift solenoid

Check if it has a transmission control module this where you pull code/s if none could be the PCM itself
