A steering column assembly is provided and includes a lower steering column member, an upper steering column member pivotally attached to the lower steering column member, and a locking mechanism operably interconnecting the upper and lower steering column members and selectively actuable for locking the upper steering column member in one of a plurality of pivot positions relative to the lower steering column member and a lever mechanism operably interconnected with the locking member for selectively actuation the locking member. The lever mechanism includes a release lever, a multiplying lever in operable communication with the locking mechanism, and a link interconnecting the release lever and the multiplying lever. The link transfers an input force applied to the release lever for multiplication through the multiplying lever for actuating the locking mechanism.
