I have a brand new Macbook Pro Retina, MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2015) with Yosemite 10.10.4 (14E46). Every now and then the whole display jerks briefly down and then back up again in place. I haven't found any reference to this online. Any idea why this might be happening?

Typically Apple will replace (instead of repair) a computer that has required 3 repairs for the same issue.
It may require a call to Apple Care (800-273-2273) and ask to have the case escalated. If you have taken it to the store already, and the store has refused to replace, then Apple Care will probably back the store's decision. If however you call Apple Care first, and when they say to take it to the Apple Store for repair, you question the need for 3 repairs on the same computer for the same reason, ask to have it escalated, you will probably get offered a replacement.
If that gets you nowhere, You may also try a EECB (Executive Email Carpet Bomb) to various service level contacts. sjobs@apple used to get results, may try tcook@apple.com now? Or do google/consumerist search for EECB and Apple. http://consumerist.com/2007/05/11/how-to-launch-an-executive-email-carpet-bomb/
Try disabling LCD font smoothing. Go to the Apple menu, choose System Preferences, then choose General. It's the last checkbox at the very bottom.

Based on my experience with Macbooks, I suspect there is either a loose connector, or (sigh) you have a dying chip on the motherboard (probably video controller). Genius Bar should be able to diagnose for you pretty quickly.
