Any codes in the PCM? Usually when that happens it's the ABS sensor that needs to be cleaned. Not a huge job & you can find it in here by searching possibly in the DIY section for ABS sensor cleaning. Mine does that (ABS kicks in then the peddle gets a bit mushy) & when it does it's always under 5mph or very close to it. Code came up as right ABS sensor. Hopefully it just needs to be cleaned so it can read the front wheel speed properly.
