ABSTRACT:
A mechanism to lock the driver seat in a vehicle in a forward position to prevent a thief from getting on the seat and driving away in the vehicle. The seat adjuster is positioned such that the seat back portion is at an angle with the horizontal seat portion. A lock mechanism mounted on the seat back plate and either manually or electronically operated, causes a lock pin to enter coaligned apertures formed in the front and back plates of the seat adjuster, an intermediate plate member preventing the seat back portion from being moved. In order to enable the seat adjuster to resume its normal operation, the locking pin is withdrawn from the coaligned apertures.
