More Information
Summary:A seat assembly having a latch assembly includes a seat cushion defining a transverse axis along a side-to-side direction of the seat cushion. The seat cushion is pivotally attached to the vehicle, and the latch assembly is attached to the seat cushion. The latch assembly includes a latch that has a latch position attaching the seat cushion to the vehicle at the latch assembly, and a release position releasing the seat cushion from the vehicle at the latch assembly. The latch assembly also includes a slider arrangement configured to facilitate pivotal movement of at least a portion of the latch assembly inboard toward a center line of the seat cushion and generally along the transverse axis. Such movement automatically occurs when the latch releases the seat cushion from the vehicle at the latch assembly and the seat assembly is pivoted forward about the riser.
