Default New 2.3Sport driveability problem?

Hi Guys,

New Mazda 3 owner here. Love the car but am noticing a problem when I'm stuck in stop and go traffic. The car tends to lurch a bit at steady speeds of 15 or20 mph or so in 2nd gear. Acceleration is smooth and strong but with a steady foot on the pedal at these slow speeds the engine or transmission makes the car buck slightly- enough to be tiring and annoying. RPMs approx. 3K. Any ideas? Car has less than 1000 miles on it.

Thanks!

G.
