You’ll drive with extra safety and confidence with PULSE® rear-end collision deterrent ($499)
The name says it all. PULSE® is the rear-end collision deterrent that rapidly pulses your third brake light 4 times when you press the brake pedal. (The pulsing does not repeat upon any subsequent application of the brakes for 5 seconds so as not to annoy trailing drivers in stop-and-go traffic.)
