Icon4 Car Jerking right out of nowhere?

Hey guys, got a 93 hatch. lately (for the last 3 days) i been noticing that out of nowhere my car will jerk to the right. I'll drive it atleast for 30 minutes or so before it happens. its not a constant thing, it comes and goes. I have no idea of what it is. Need to get it fixed ASAP its my daily.

EDIT: Found the issue, bad right side cv axle.

does it happen when you hit the gas?

does it happen when you hit the brakes?

when you hit a bump?

When it does happen, does your steering wheel pull to the direction the car pulls?

Bad tires? Have you inspected the front suspension?

Not When i hit the gas/brakes, but just at random times lets say when i'm doing 65 on the freeway, maybe every 30 minutes or so it'll happen. and yes my steering wheel pulls to the direction the car pulls. I wanna get it fixed today , Need to get it back on the road.

It wouldn't just happen magically for no reason. You need to figure out the specific "event" that makes it jerk. Pot holes? Uneven road? Always a specific stretch of road? Always when you hit a certain speed in a certain gear?

It ended up being a bad passenger side cv axle. Got way worst today barely made it home. Gonna get that fixed now.
