ABSTRACT:
A recliner for a vehicle seat assembly is disclosed in which the locking pawl of the recliner is formed with teeth configured to resist damage when the seat back is rotated to a forward dump position. The pawl teeth at the end of the pawl closest to the slide face of the recliner latch gear are of a shorter length than the remainder of the pawl teeth to enable the teeth to resist bending deformation caused by impact with the latch gear end face. The pawl teeth are of a progressively longer length from the end of the pawl inward, over a limited number of teeth.
