ADVANCED car features like automatic parking are helping drivers overcome daily road inconveniences.

But you don’t have to drive the latest Tesla or Mercedes-Benz to take advantage of one useful interior button.

TikTok creator Jess posted a video testing a car secret many drivers remain unaware of.

The hack relates to vehicle grab handles located on the interior’s ceiling by each window.

Auto manufacturers install grab handles as passenger assists during entries and exits.

Grab handles are not designed to be held onto amid emergency driving situations.

While grab handles are designed for convenience, repeatedly pulling this handle out from its folded position can get annoying.

Luckily Jess’s test covers whether or not a button can allow grab handles to remain in an outward position.

This TikTok creator locates a grab handle inside her car, opens the handle, and pulls down a small flap that keeps the feature in place.

You may have to use your keys to pop the flaps out if you don’t see Jess’s flaps in your vehicle’s grab handles.

Once your grab handles are down, the feature can double as a clothes hanger.

Commenters on Jess’ TikTok were shocked that this handle hack had been hiding in plain sight.

One TikTok user commented: “Why don’t these things come with instructions!!!!!!!! Ahhhhhhhhh my life!!!!”

Another TikTok account replied: “They’re [door handle hack directions] probably in the owners manual that everyone gets and none reads.”

Other viewers of this TikTok communicated their gratitude to Jess for committing to her hack test.

One TikTok user commented: “I did not know that either. Brilliantly filmed and edited, and acted out too.”
