An easy-entry release system is utilized to actuate an easy-entry recliner of a vehicle seat assembly configured to fold a seat back relative to a seat bottom. The easy-entry release system includes a support member connectable to a seat back, a lever pivotally attached to the support member, and a sled in contact with the support member and moveable relative to the support member between a first position and a second position along a linear path. The sled is connected to the lever such that the lever rotates relative to the support member in response to the sled moving between the first and second positions. A strap is connected to the sled such that actuation of the strap moves the sled between the first and second positions.
