Unhappy Transmission issue

Anyone have a sort of a jerk coming to a stop from 2nd gear to
1st gear. Feels like its the trans axle, i only have 9k miles.

Take it in and have it checked under warranty.

Sometimes when slowing down around 23-24 mph I get that. That is probably when it changes from 2nd to 1st.

Mine will do some variation of that if I have the tow/haul button activated. Otherwise, no.

Mine has a little thud when leaving from a start going about 5-10mph. It doesn't happen every time I start moving from a stop but it does happen about half the time. It isn't terrible but it is noticable. Feels like it is coming from the rear diff/axle. I need to take it in for warranty repair but I don't want to lose it for another two weeks like the last time I took it in for repair!

I have that same thing from a dead stop on occasion. I've mentioned it to the dealer, but they say they never hear it. As I'm hitting 24k miles, I need to make more of an issue of it before my warranty runs out.

There was a TSB posted for this thud popping I cant find it
Its actually something to do with the transfer case AWD system software
