2012 Edge doing a new trick- seems to be a low speed tranny shudder.

So my mom's 2012 Edge with the 2.0 Ecoboost has a new trick it is doing. It is most noticeable when slow, but it seems like a bind-release type action. I jacked it up the other day to see if it was a wheel bearing or such, as I haven't seen this kind of thing happen before on anything. Well, while it was jacked up, the tires were not touching down and it would jerk the motor and trans hard every so often and give the binding sound even when jacked up off the tires. It kind of seems like a binding diff or something.

The trans trick must have been traction control I am guessing. The popping noise ended up being a bad strut bearing.
