Happens to me all the time and a buddy in CA has the same issue. That's a "feature." My dealership told me that this was an issue with the 5s and they issued a software fix for it. I figure if enough of us complain, they might do something about it.

Drive in S or just click your paddles down to M1 while in D, take off from the stop, and let the trans go back to D mode on its own. The lurch goes away once the car's warmed up.

I think it's inexcusable, personally, and needs to be addressed, but bitching at my dealer didn't get me anywhere.
