Traction Control System problem

While braking normal to light pressure from 25-5mph on dry paved road, abs system will turn on and greatly increase stopping distance. There has been more than one instance that I have not been able to stop before a stop light or stopped traffic. There are no abs codes or abs idiot lights on in the dash which indicate that anything is wrong. Safety is a large concern. Brought vehicle to dealer and no issue was found, without being requested to pay $1500+ for an entire new abs. This was after they told me they couldn't find source to the problem. I see this a common problem on many forums and there is a recall on 2003-2005 Santa Fe's for a same/similar issue.
