Abstract
A vehicle seating assembly includes a seat and a seatback. A retainer assembly is positioned in a rearward portion of the seatback. The retainer assembly includes a recess and a bezel positioned about a perimeter of the recess. A hanger is pivotably coupled to a lower portion of the recess. The hanger engages with an upper portion of the recess when in a stowed position. When in the stowed position the hanger defines an aperture between an inside surface of the hanger and a rear surface of the bezel. The aperture is of sufficient dimensions to prevent crushing an article that is supported by the hanger when the hanger is in the stowed position.
