There's a TSB on this problem with GM. Your problem is the ABS sensors in the front wheel hub. Corrosion is building up and pushing the sensor barley out of spec. I fix this problem in ym shop all the time...very common occurance.

agreed with above, but once the dealership replaced both of my hub assemblies the problem still occurred. They then told me that it was my Hydraulic Control Unit, and it would not be covered as part of the TSB. So I just removed my abs fuse and never looked back. In most cases doing what Torque said above fixes it.
