Now Equipped on Every Vehicle: Pulse Safer Braking Technology at Hello Subaru of Temecula

At Hello Subaru of Temecula, your safety is our driving force. Whether you’re picking out your next Subaru Outback or exploring a quality pre-owned Forester, every vehicle on our lot now comes with an extra layer of safety—Pulse Safer Braking Technology.

With today’s roads more distracting than ever, Pulse helps you stand out—reducing the risk of rear-end collisions with a highly visible brake light alert system.

Rear-End Collisions Are More Common Than You Think

Nearly half of all two-vehicle crashes in the U.S. are rear-end accidents, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Often, they’re not caused by speeding or reckless behavior—but simply by delayed reaction time.

Pulse is designed to counter that.

What Does Pulse Do?

When you hit the brakes, Pulse activates your third brake light with four rapid, bright flashes—drawing attention to your slowing vehicle. After the flash sequence, your brake lights return to normal operation.

It also includes a built-in 5-second reset to prevent repetitive flashing in stop-and-go traffic.

You don’t have to adjust or activate anything—Pulse is fully automatic every time you press the brake pedal.

Common Questions About Pulse

Will it distract or irritate other drivers?
No. Pulse was designed to alert—not annoy. It flashes briefly once per brake application, then resets after five seconds.

Does it affect how my brakes work?
Not at all. Pulse connects only to the third brake light, leaving your braking system untouched.

Is my vehicle compatible?
Most likely! Pulse works on nearly all vehicles built since 1991 and supports both LED and incandescent lights.

Can it be removed?
It’s a discreet, permanent install—but if you ever have questions, our service team is here to help.
