Known issues on the 2018 S5 Sportback. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers the front passenger air bag inflator module: oxidation on the Passenger Occupant Detection System connecting cable can cause the software to misdiagnose a malfunction and disable the passenger air bag, increasing the risk of injury in a crash. The second covers the seats: a contact fault in the cable connecting the seat heater to the Passenger Occupant Detection System can likewise cause the system to misdiagnose a malfunction and disable the passenger air bag. Owners have filed 26 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.
From tracing a Passenger Occupant Detection System fault to a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2018 S5 Sportback.
