    Abstract: A vehicle door latch (10) has a housing (2) having a mouth (4) for receiving a striker. A ratchet (56) is pivotally mounted to the housing for rotation between latched and unlatched conditions . The ratchet (56) cooperates with the mouth (4) to selectively retain a striker. A pawl (62) is mounted to the housing (2) f or releasably engaging the ratchet (56). The pawl (62) is moveable relative to the ratchet (56) between a rest position engaging th e ratchet to block movement of the ratchet toward the unlatched condition and a released position disengaging the ratchet to allow movement of the ratchet toward the unlatched condition. A release lever (22) is mounted to the housing and operably connected to the pawl (62) by a clutch lever (94) extending therebetween. The clutch lever (94) is moveable between an engaged position operably connecting the release lever (22) to the pawl (62) effecting movement of the pawl toward the released position and a disengaged position operably disconnecting the release lever from the pawl. A locking lever (100) is mounted to the housing for moving the clutch lever (94) between the engaged and disengaged positions. The clutch lever (94) moves in a first plane (19) to effect movement of the pawl and the locking lever moves the clutch lever out the first plane(19) to effect movement between the engaged and said disengaged positions.

    Abstract: A power liftgate drive assembly (10) moves a liftgate (12) of a motor vehicle (14) between an open position and a closed position The power liftgate assembly (10) is aligned along the side of the motor vehicle (14) A liftgate rod (46) extends in a generally vertical orientation between the power liftgate drive assembly (10) and the liftgate (12) The assembly (10) includes a base (24) that is fixedly secured to the motor vehicle (14) near a load floor (22) A guide (28) extends upwardly from the base (24). The guide (28) extends along the side of the motor vehicle (14) and is disposed adjacent the liftgate (12) when the liftgate (12) is in the closed position A liftgate carriage (40) is connected to the guide (28). The liftgate carriage (40) slides along the guide (28) The liftgate rod (46) is pivotally connected between the liftgate carnage (40) and the liftgate (12) The liftgate rod (46) translates the linear movement of the liftgate carriage (40) into the pivotal movement of the liftgate (12) to move the liftgate (12) between the open and closed positions.
