Hello ESKUDERO88 !

Your pot problem can have different origins :
poor quality : are they cermet track ? (ceramic metal) or plastic track ?
shear forces on pot inducing jumps on the track ...

Could you send pictures of the mounting ? it will be usefull for giving you the answer

Hi !
Have you solved the problem ?

More hints
- Do you have tried with shielded wires ?
- Yours motors are eletrically isolated ?

I had the same Problem cutting down the Pot shaft and using shielded cables like telephone cable worked for me.
I connected the shield only to arduino gnd.
