Abstract
An actuation system for a vehicle seat includes a housing and a gear system located in the housing having one or more gears coupled together. The gears of the actuation system have a low actuation efficiency such that the gears move in response to a first input. The actuation system further includes an efficiency switch that may be activated so that the actuation system has a higher actuation efficiency.
