Slight shutters and vibrations on acceleration from low speed.

Hello everyone i have a 2011 Maxima SV I noticed that on acceleration from 0mph to about 20 there would be a low vibration and when I let go of the gas and press down again it would smoothen out also sometimes when o accelerate it feels like the front wheels shutter a bit. Has anyone experienced this I want to believe that it’s my tires or wheel bee rings but a part of me is scared that the CVT might be acting strange. If it is the CVT would anyone recommend a fluid and filter change?

How many miles on the car? Has the fluid ever been changed? If its been over 60K miles since the last change it's a good idea to change the fluid. That would at least rule out bad fluid as your problem.

well it’s had 219K miles on it highway miles I bought the car used from a family member as a first car as I know the fluid hasn’t been changed and I’m afraid to service it because I don’t want any more major issues to arise
