A recliner mechanism for an automotive vehicle seat for allowing pivotal adjustment of a seat back (12) relative to a seat cushion (14) between a plurality of reclined seating positions and a forwardly stowed position. The recliner mechanism includes a seat back (12) bracket pivotally coupled to a seat cushion bracket. The seat back (12) bracket and seat cushion (14) bracket are each fixedly secured to the seat back (12) and seat cushion (14), respectively. A sector of teeth is formed in the seat back bracket. A pawl (40) having a rack of teeth lockably engageable with the sector of teeth is slidably engaged with the seat cushion bracket (30) for movement between a locked position with the rack of teeth engaged with the sector of teeth and an unlocked position with the rack of teeth disengaged with the sector of teeth. A guide pin (26) extends from the seat hack bracket (20) to maintain the pawl (40) in the unlocked position while the seat back is moved between the plurality of reclined seating positions and the forwardly stowed position.
