Default intermittent aggressive brakes

I have a 2010 FX2,5.4,supercab that has developed overly aggressive braking at slow speed. It dosen't happen all the time but when it dose they really grab hard.Creeping along in stop and go traffic the truck gets a lurching feel, almost like a grab and release feel,the pedal remains smooth. It makes no difference, hot,cold ,wet,dry,morning rust. The grabing is really annoying in parking lots. Any feed back would be great. Dealer says no problem,how surprising.

no thumping,every thing feels normal right up to the end,no strange noise. I did have to take it in to have the drive shaft greased, the brake issue was present then and now.I have approx. 26,000 miles

2010 scab. mine does it every now and then. i wonder if it is something to do with the anti-lock brakes? only happens at slow speeds. at speeds above a crawl mine does fine.

2011 XLT SCAB
Mine does it once in a while too.
As particular as I am, I just never worried about it.
At speed the brakes are very good.
