On two occasions when I started my base Cayenne, a warning message appeared stating "PAS not activated service required." That warning is accompanied by another message "ACC not activated," and I cannot use my cruise control. These messages have disappeared when I restarted the vehicle. Also my fuel cap has stopped clicking and will need to be replaced. Has anyone else had these issues or know what might be causing the warning messages?

Sorry, but I suspect these will be easily resolved with a service call.
I like your thread. With the new Cayenne models beginning to arrive in larger numbers this would be a great place to keep track of issues. As the cars become more and more "electronic" I would expect to see lots of electronic bugs like the one you described. Meticulous "hands-on" Quality Control is great for the physical issues but struggles seeing bugs in software.
Thanks for your post!

My fuel cap takes a few clicks to close as well.
I've seen twice PAC disabled due to dirty sensor error, but restarting the car solves it.
After my wife uses her key and adjusts seating positions, when I enter the car with my key fob, the seats not restored to my memory position automatically, I have to press the memory key.
When I go over bumps, sometime the front wiper or front screen fan will be engaged.
These are minor issues and most of them can be easily fixed or updated with software.

Looks like a lot of issues. Hope they fix all of the issues shortly. Is the lack of seal issue specific to your car or a design flaw? I mean, if the seal not designed to be there at all or is it just not working as supposed on your car? The previous gen cayenne had very good seals.

Will post pictures of the dirt issues when I get a chance. Important to stress not an interior penetration issue just onto the underlying facings. More sloppy design than anything else. All of the issues I listed have been reported in other places on this list serve by other new owners, I just put the list together in one place. Some of the other pics of the issues are below on the PCM warnings (#3) and condensation in lighting bars and headlights (#11)

Do the recalls apply to all 2019 base Cayennes? I have not received any recall notices. If you want to get rid of the haze which is usually caused by road grime, wiper residue or automatic car wash, I recommend Diamond Fast Powder which is a very mild glass polish. It also removes mild scratches. It’s very easy to use. You spray a little water on the windshield and then put some of the polish powder on a damp sponge or microfiber towel and apply it to the windshield to creat a slurry. Wipe it off with paper towels and then some windex. I use it on all of my cars every 4 months. You will be amazed at the clarity of the glass. It’s about $20 for 10 ounce jar that should last for many years. The phone # is 800-441-4527 www.gtglass.com

Interesting thread.
I'd like to add one which is assignment of the diamond button sometimes gets reset to nothing.
another related issue is that there are cases where the diamond button is working as it should, but when checking the settings menu it is showing that the button is not yet assigned.

I have noticed the diamond button issue when I set it by holding it down. If I use the screen to set, it is fine.
The PCM has forgotten all of my favorites (radio stations) once.
