ABSTRACT:
A high retention seat assembly has a seat cushion unit and a back rest unit which moves rearwardly relative to the seat cushion unit when subjected to severe loading by the occupant during a rear collision. A collapsible retention connected with the seat cushion unit and back rest unit is tensioned or pulled taut in response to rearward movement of the back rest unit relative to the seat cushion unit to limit rearward deflection of the back rest unit during such a rear collision.
