Bench Seat Question (w/ Pic)

Wondering what the silver colored bar towards the back does, it just seems to hang there and isnt very accessible when the cover is on....

TIA

looks like it holds the seatback from going too far back

Re: Bench Seat Question (w/ Pic)

Is it an "intertial device"? A pendulum to keep the seat back from flopping forward during a collision?

I thought that too but it doesnt seem to do anything. Maybe I have it misconfigured.
