A latch assembly includes a housing, a door latch member and a release member. The door latch member pivots about a first pivot axis. The release member pivots about a second pivot axis spaced apart from the first pivot axis located within the housing operatively coupled to the latch retaining member. An inertia activated lock-out mechanism is fixedly attached to the housing and includes a locking member within the housing that pivots about a third pivot axis spaced apart from the first and second pivot axes. The first, second and third pivot axes are all parallel to one another at fixed locations within the housing. The locking member pivots between a locking position preventing movement of the release member and a non-interfering position in which the locking member is spaced apart from the release member allowing the release member to be movable.
