Transmission can be somewhat tricky to figure out, as stated above maybe you should have the trans scanned with a code reader first.

Hi Herbet,
This could be a number of problems such as the following:1. Ignition fault.2. Fuel delivery.3. Intake an vacum system.
The quickest and cheapest way to narrow this fault down to a specific area is to have your vehicle go through a Diagnostic Scan, which will narrow it down with code numbers.
Then once you have these jump back on here and I'm sure that we can narrow it down further to a specific component or area.
Let me know if you need more information.
Thanks
Jason

Hi Herbert,I agree with my friends up above and suggest you take the vehicle for a diagnostic scan. You can check for broken ducting to the intake manifold and disconnected vacuum piping. When you say the vehicle jerks, does the jerking come from the engine or is it from somewhere else on the vehicle? Maybe the prop shaft? Regards Johngee10

Hello, I am thinking throttle position system on the intake plenum. Also, check the vaccum hose to the fuel regulator on the fuel manifold.

I would have someone with OB II scanner to scan your you auto and see what fault code show up. GB...stewbison

My '05 altima hesitates when i shift from park to drive then jerks into gear. once driving changes gears smoothly, no jerking, no slipping, no hesitation.

Read the owners manual for checking the Transmission Fluid. Usually it involves putting the car in Neutral and checking the fluid. If it is low, that could be the problem. If it is not, it may be a problem with the gears. I would take it to a shop to try to diagnose the issue.

My car cuts off at times right after it is cranked. At other times when stopped at a stop light but starts back up. Also, when driving it is hesitating and jerking.

It sounds like you have a bad MAF (Mass Airflow Sensor). This is in your air inlet tube, pull this out and check to see if there is any corrosion on it. If is one that has a coiled exposed wire, then ensure that the wire is not broke.
