Image A latch assembly selectively engages a striker for latching a door to a motor vehicle body. The latch assembly includes a housing. A ratchet is rotatably mounted to the housing for movement between an engaged position engaging the striker and a release position. A ratchet-engaging pawl is rotatably mounted to the housing and engageable with the ratchet to retain the ratchet in the engaged position. An inertia mechanism is operably connected to the ratchet-engaging pawl to prevent the ratchet-engaging pawl from pivoting out of engagement with the ratchet when the ratchet-engaging pawl begins to pivot due to inertial forces acting thereupon.
