Abstract
A steering column assembly includes a first energy absorption strap and an energy absorption strap mounting assembly coupled to a jacket assembly. The energy absorption strap mounting assembly includes an engagement surface and at least one standoff. The at least one standoff extends from at least one of the first energy absorption strap and the engagement surface. The at least one standoff spaces the first energy absorption strap from the engagement surface in an assembled condition. The spacing defines a receiving area configured to receive a second energy absorption strap therein.
