The ABS and Traction Control lights come on. When they come on while driving the car does a jolt.

This can happens when one of the wheel speed sensors goes out or the wiring to one of the sensor gets ripped out of the connector by road debris. I would raise the car up to inspect the wiring to each of the sensors. To help find out which sensor it is you can do a ABS scan to see what codes are stored to help pinpoint the issue.
