I had the same engine and trans in my 17 civic and never had that problem. It did get a little jerky when coasting in traffic, but not at launch.
That sounds like it could be some kind of internal clutch problem. If it is it will only get worse. Get it fixed on warranty .
I'm only at 13k miles but thought I'd chime in and say mine has not done this. Definately something I would get checked out while your under warranty (if your still in a warranty period).

no it’s not when u accelerate, it’s when u put it in Drive and you release the brake right away, the car jerks little until it fully engages

it’s a torque converter CVT lol doesn’t have clutch.

Any updates?
I have a 2018 sport 1.5t with about 17,000 miles and I have experienced the same. I have made it a habit to hold the brake pedal for another 2 seconds when shifting from park to reverse or drive. If I do not, there is a slight jerk sensation. Never had any issues so I assumed it was normal for the CVT.
