Abstract
A vehicle seat for a motor vehicle has a backrest which is mounted, so as to be pivotable about a pivot axis, on a fitting that is located on the associated seat side and is connected to a seat side part of a seat part, the seat side part being located on the seat side, via a deformation device. The deformation device has a bolt that is accommodated in a deformation element of the fitting and can be displaced along a deformation guide in the event of an accident-induced overload. A sliding element is located between the fitting and the seat side part.
