One of your vehciel speed sensors might be going out or has a chaffed wire that is grounding out. My old SS had the same issue, drive fine then ABS INOP light and peddle pulsations while stopping. The clip that holds the wire to the lower A-arm came loose and the wire was dangling letting it rub on stuff. Well after a while it wore through the wire cover and when it touched the bare metal it would make the ABS computer wig out. Simple fix, just re-wrapped the wire and used a zip-tie to re-mount it. Never happened again.

Would HP Tuners pick up individual sensors errors, to know which one to look at?
I don't get a check engine light.

Mine seems to happen when I go over huge bumps and usually if I have 4 people in the car.

Can be one of two things. Your abs module could be bad. Which I know a place to get it rebuilt. Or you BCM could be going bad. Ive had both happen. Still waiting to get my BCM back. Its more than likely the ABS module. Good luck and let us know how it goes
