A safety latch mechanism for a vehicle lift includes a pawl support member secured to a support post guiding a lift carriage having vertically positioned stop blocks. A pawl plate rests on the pawl support member and is urged toward engagement with the stop blocks to arrest downward movement of the lift carriage. A release lever selectively retracts the pawl plate to release the carriage for downward movement. A cable connects between a pair of the pawl plates on a system with a pair of the lift units.
