Auto-adjusting head restraint
So, I was killing some time, reading through my owner's manual, and I came across this (see photo of page 353):
"The head restraint on the front passenger's side is automatically lowered all the way down while the vehicle is in motion if no one is sitting on the seat. This helps to acquire a better all-round view"
I've owned this car for just over a year now, and I have never witnessed the head rest lowering itself when the passenger seat is unoccupied.
Has anyone actually seen this feature in action? Am I missing something here?

I agree. It appears that this would be a handy feature. Next time I'm in the dealer for service, I will be sure to request that they activate it.
