    Abstract: A seatback recliner system for a vehicle seat including a seat bottom and a seatback is provided. The system includes a latch mechanism movable between a latched state where the latch mechanism holds the seatback in a fixed angular position relative to the seat bottom and an unlatched state where the seatback is angularly movable relative to the seat bottom. A handle is movable between a rest position where the latch mechanism is disposed in the latched state and an actuated position where the latch mechanism is disposed in the unlatched state, in response to the handle receiving an actuation load from a user. A handle extension member is releasably mounted to the handle by a coupler that disengages the handle extension member from the handle such that the handle remains disposed in the rest position relative to the latch mechanism.

    Abstract: A handle assembly for a seat of a vehicle includes an up/down handle, a recline handle, and a finger guard. The up/down handle is configured to adjust a vertical position of a seat bottom when the up/down handle is rotated relative to the seat about a first pivot axis. The recline handle is configured to allow an angle of a seat back to be adjusted when the recline handle is rotated relative to the seat about a second pivot axis. The finger guard is configured to cover a gap between the up/down handle and the recline handle to prevent an occupant in the seat from inserting a finger into the gap. The finger guard is separate from and attached to the recline handle and is configured to rotate about a third pivot axis relative to the recline handle independent of rotation of the recline handle about the second pivot.
