Actually, now that I think about it, this sounds A LOT like the issue I ha had with my Cherokee. Even though I was driving it in 2WD, the transfer case had slipped, and stripped the gears. When I would accelerate, it would spin until it would catch, and then jerk the vehicle really hard. Mine was covered under warranty .. they had to replace the entire thing.
Even if you bought it used ... there is a 30 day warranty that they should honor. Make them fix or return it.
