Probably not your problem, but then, even a new torque converter can have a flaw. Just throwing it out there.

a rumble strip is a great description of the problem..but yeah I seriously doubt its the TC..
something tells me it also might have something to do with the section of road I'm driving on since it doesn't seem to do it all of the time.
