ok so we have to assume this is either a motor mount issue or a transmission issue have you checked the transmission fluid to make sure it's at the full mark, reddish/pink, and does not smell burnt?

I changed fluid soon as this started. It did smell burnt.The motor mount issue would affect shifting? I noticed that when I shift into drive from park the entire engine shifts forward a lot.
Automotive Expert
yes, the motor mounts would "feel" like a transmission issue if they are bad and it the engine jumps like that, that is a telltale sign of the motor mounts

Thank you very much for your time, I have direction to go n.
