ABS senses when your tires have lost traction and induce a changing pressure on the brake pads, reducing the pressure to regain control, then reapplying however much pressure you are telling the system to apply through the brake pedal. This is the thumping you feel when the ABS activates. ABS is q safety feature that helps you stay in control of the vehicle because as you're tires lock up you lose steering controllability, especially on slick surfaces.

Your brakes need bleeding. And if you have antilock brakes, you should take it to a shop to bleed them. It takes special tools to bleed antilock brakes. If you have regular brakes you can bleed them yourself. Could go into further detail but would take too long to explain. Refer to a repair manual. Note: bleeding antilock brakes without first disconnecting the sensor will damage the sensor and the antilock function will no longer work (learned the hard way, unfortunately).
