Vehicle jerks and bucks under acceleration when cold started and when moving from a stop light or sign. Hesitates when pulling out like it's attempting to locate a gear and throttle is unresponsive at first, then kicks in suddenly.

Sudden Acceleration Issue. Leaving a parking lot at low acceleration my 2022 VW Tiguan SEL R-line suddenly accelerated. I was able to stomp on the brake pedal to remedy the situation. This happened twice in a 12 hour period. I have not yet taken it to the dealer as this is a rare incident at this time. All seemed like normal operation at the time the issue happened.
