Abstract
An anti-pinch system of a vehicle closure includes a detection system for detecting pinching and a clutch to disconnect the vehicle closure from a closure driving mechanism following detection of pinching by the detection system. The closure drive mechanism can be disengaged to prevent an increase in pinching during the time required to reverse the movement of the closure driving mechanism.
