Default Traction Control Light , ABS Light coming on at the same? Need your Assistance

When I'm driving on the highway in 5th or 6th gear and start backing off the gas,
the Traction Control Light and the ABS light come on at the same time for a second or two.
When this happens the car jolts lighty for about a second or two, then the warning lights go off and the car drives normally again. This only happens on the highway and not while getting on the gas or motoring through turns. My dealership already replaced the computer(under warranty) but its still happening from time to time. Any idea what could be the problem? Thanks.

MAF sensor, hole (air leak) in front of the MAF. Are your MAF clips on tight?
