Abstract

A vibration damper for damping vibrations of a motor vehicle part including a retaining device attachable to the motor vehicle part, a damping mass, capable of vibrating with respect to the retaining device, and a spring device coupling the damping mass capable of vibrating to the retaining device. The damping mass may have at least one anti-loss device and/or path limiting device that may interact with the retaining device to limit a deflection of the damping mass with respect to the retaining device.
