The reliability of the automobile seat angle-adjuster directly affects the safety of vehicle. The reliability of the seat angle-adjuster is improved based on bench test. Liability model of seat angle-adjuster system is established according to seat angle-adjuster of key parts failure mode. That provides technical support for the design improvements of seat angle-adjuster.
