Abstract
A lock mechanism includes a release cam assembly configured to be articulated around an axis of a spindle, an isolation lock unlock linkage, a primary lock unlock linkage, and a door panel suspension. Responsive to an emergency release being pulled, the isolation lock unlock linkage and the primary lock unlock linkage are configured to be sequentially actuated in a sequence that includes a) unlocking an isolation lock when the isolation lock previously was in a locked position, b) unlocking a primary door lock by rotational stroke motion of the spindle, and c) rotating the spindle in an open direction.
