NHTSA complaint #11676997, filed 2025-07“I recently purchased this vehicle new from Denny Menholt Ford in Butte, MT. When purchasing I was told they added a third brake light Pulse system as a requirement on all of their vehicles. Just today I learned that per NHTSA rules it is illegal to have any pulsing brake lights on a vehicle. I wanted to make you aware of the practices of this dealership, as they informed me that the Pulse brake light is a mandatory add on and not negotiable.”
