These SECRET Car Features Are Only Known by 1% of Gen X Drivers (USE THEM NOW)

Your car has features you're not using — and the automaker already documented every one of them, page by page, in the owner's manual. In this episode of Car Owner Alert we count down 12 of them, with the car and the exact page for every single one. Features covered include the arrow on your fuel gauge, the three-flash lane change signal, the tire label on your door pillar, rolling your windows down with your key, automatic brake hold, the funnel for capless fuel systems, Teen Driver, the emergency engine stop in a push-button car, the metal key hidden inside your key fob, the keyhole you've never seen, starting the car with a dead key fob, and the glowing handle inside your trunk that federal law requires in passenger cars with a trunk. ⚠️ Features vary by make, model, year and trim. Check your own owner's manual before you try any of them. 💬 Which of these did your car have all along?
