Audi S5 Cabriolet warranty claim denied?

If your dealer just denied a warranty claim on your Audi S5 Cabriolet, that decision isn't necessarily final. Audi has filed 1,515 official communications with NHTSA covering this model line, from routine notices about parking-assistance false warnings, creaking noises during braking or steering, and Audi pre sense display icons, to more serious documented defects like faulty fuel injectors, engine cylinder head cleaning for emissions systems, and a Takata airbag inflator warranty extension. Three of these filings are formal warranty extensions or service campaigns—meaning Audi itself has acknowledged specific defects on related models and extended coverage for them.

A denial letter often reflects a dealer's initial read of your paperwork, not the full picture of what Audi has already documented about vehicles like yours. When a claim is challenged with the right service history, bulletins, and repair documentation, many denials get reconsidered. That doesn't mean every claim is reversible, and outcomes depend on your specific repair records and circumstances.

ClaimRight offers a free, no-obligation assessment of your denial. We review what Audi has publicly disclosed about your model and compare it against your documentation to identify whether you have grounds to challenge the outcome, and we only get paid if your claim succeeds.
