Maybe here in North America it's not required?
Could very well be it.
I have had it on every car I have owned, manufactured from 2000 onwards. All European brands (VW, Skoda, Audi, BMW).

I find it quite useful actually as one very often isn't aware of the changing environment. It helps me a lot e.g. during mountain journeys to alert me when to expect icing.
