2002 Hyundai Sonata

i have a automatic 2002 hyundai sonata 4 cylinder i believe. the problem that im having is that my car will be driving fine and then usually when when i slow down slightly or speed up quickly, my car will jerk and continue to run, expect now the check engine light will be on and i will be running at for instance 4 and a half grand on my rpm and ill be doing 60 mph when normally i should be at no more then i guess 3. this causes extreme gas use and im afraid wear and tear on my transmission. i have been told that this is a problem with my speed sensor, this that true?

Have the computer scanned for code/s-you have a problem within the engine management system that caused the CEL to turn on-This is your starting point of diagnosis,finding out what's going on.
