Abstract
A latch mechanism for a vehicle includes a mounting bracket defining a slot configured to receive a striker of the vehicle. The latch mechanism also includes a catch pivotally coupled to the mounting bracket. The catch is pivotable between a first position in which the catch allows removal of the striker from the slot, a second position in which the catch secures the striker within the slot, and a third position in which the catch pivots past the second position. The latch mechanism further includes a dampener element operable to slow movement of the catch as the catch pivots from the second position to the third position.
