Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block] | 1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies On October 31, 2016, Adient plc ("Adient") became an independent company as a result of the separation of the automotive seating and interiors business (the "separation") from Johnson Controls International plc ("the former Parent"). Adient was incorporated under the laws of Ireland in fiscal 2016 for the purpose of holding these businesses. Adient's ordinary shares began trading "regular-way" under the ticker symbol "ADNT" on the New York Stock Exchange on October 31, 2016. Upon becoming an independent company, the capital structure of Adient consisted of 500 million authorized ordinary shares and 100 million authorized preferred shares (par value of $0.001 per ordinary and preferred share). The number of Adient ordinary shares issued on October 31, 2016 was 93,671,810. Adient is the world's largest automotive seating supplier. Adient has a leading market position in the Americas, Europe and China, and has longstanding relationships with the largest global original equipment manufacturers, or OEMs, in the automotive space. Adient's proprietary technologies extend into virtually every area of automotive seating solutions, including complete seating systems, frames, mechanisms, foam, head restraints, armrests, trim covers and fabrics. Adient is an independent seat supplier with global scale and the capability to design, develop, engineer, manufacture, and deliver complete seat systems and components in every major automotive producing region in the world. Adient also participates in the automotive interiors market primarily through its global automotive interiors joint venture in China, Yanfeng Global Automotive Interior Systems Co., Ltd., or YFAI. Basis of Presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements are presented on a consolidated basis and include all of the accounts and operations of Adient and its consolidated subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are normal and recurring in nature, necessary for fair financial statement presentation. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in these consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The interim consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with Adient’s annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017. Consolidated VIEs Based upon the criteria set forth in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 810, "Consolidation," Adient has determined that it was the primary beneficiary in two variable interest entities (VIEs) for the reporting periods ended December 31 , 2017 and 2016, as Adient absorbs significant economics of the entities and has the power to direct the activities that are considered most significant to the entities. The two VIEs manufacture seating products in North America for the automotive industry. Adient funds the entities' short-term liquidity needs through revolving credit facilities and has the power to direct the activities that are considered most significant to the entities through its key customer supply relationships. The carrying amounts and classification of assets (none of which are restricted) and liabilities included in Adient's consolidated statements of financial position for the consolidated VIEs are as follows: (in millions) December 31, 2017 September 30, 2017 Current assets $ 210 $ 232 Noncurrent assets 63 56 Total assets $ 273 $ 288 Current liabilities $ 159 $ 169 Total liabilities $ 159 $ 169 Revisions As disclosed in the fiscal 2017 Form 10-K, Adient revised previously reported results to correctly report equity income from a non-consolidated affiliate in the Seating segment related to engineering costs that were inappropriately capitalized. Adient also revised previously reported net sales and cost of sales to correctly report certain sales on a net versus gross basis in the Seating segment. The following tables disclose the quarterly impact for the three months ended December 31, 2016 of such previously disclosed revisions. Adient assessed the materiality of these misstatements on prior periods’ financial statements in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 99, Materiality, codified in ASC 250, Presentation of Financial Statements, and concluded that these misstatements were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to any previously issued financial statements. In accordance with ASC 250 (SAB No. 108, Considering the Effects of Prior Year Misstatements when Quantifying Misstatements in Current Year Financial Statements), the consolidated financial statements and notes to consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2016 have been revised. Adient will revise remaining fiscal 2017 interim periods in future quarterly filings. The following tables show the impact of these revisions on impacted line items from Adient's consolidated financial statements. Consolidated Statements of Income (Loss) Three Months Ended December 31, 2016 (in millions, except per share data) As Reported Adjustment As Revised Net sales $ 4,038 $ (12 ) $ 4,026 Cost of sales 3,688 (12 ) 3,676 Gross profit 350 — 350 Equity income 101 (7 ) 94 Earnings before interest and income taxes 234 (7 ) 227 Income before income taxes 199 (7 ) 192 Net income (loss) 171 (7 ) 164 Net income (loss) attributable to Adient 149 (7 ) 142 Earnings per share: Basic $ 1.59 $ (0.07 ) $ 1.52 Diluted $ 1.59 $ (0.08 ) $ 1.51 Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss) Three Months Ended December 31, 2016 (in millions) As Reported Adjustment As Revised Total comprehensive income (loss) $ (280 ) $ (7 ) $ (287 ) Comprehensive income (loss) attributable to Adient (300 ) (7 ) (307 ) Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows Three Months Ended December 31, 2016 (in millions) As Reported Adjustment As Revised Operating Activities Net income (loss) $ 171 $ (7 ) $ 164 Equity in earnings of partially-owned affiliates, net of dividends received (79 ) 7 (72 ) Cash provided (used) by operating activities (13 ) — (13 ) Earnings Per Share The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share: Three Months Ended December 31, (in millions, except per share data) 2017 2016 Numerator: Net income (loss) attributable to Adient $ (216 ) $ 142 Denominator: Shares outstanding 93.2 93.7 Effect of dilutive securities — 0.2 Diluted shares 93.2 93.9 Earnings per share: Basic $ (2.32 ) $ 1.52 Diluted $ (2.32 ) $ 1.51 Potentially dilutive securities whose effect would have been antidilutive are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. Accounting Pronouncements In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-11, "Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory." ASU No. 2015-11 requires inventory that is recorded using the first-in, first-out method to be measured at the lower of cost or net realizable value. ASU No. 2015-11 was effective retrospectively for Adient for the quarter ending December 31, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on Adient's consolidated financial statements. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-07, "Investments-Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting." ASU No. 2016-07 eliminates the requirement that when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence, an investor must adjust the investment, results of operations, and retained earnings retrospectively. ASU No. 2016-07 was effective prospectively for Adient for increases in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence that result in the adoption of the equity method that occur during or after the quarter ending December 31, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not impact Adient's consolidated financial statements for the quarter ending December 31, 2017. In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-17, "Consolidation (Topic 810): Interests Held through Related Parties That Are under Common Control." ASU No. 2016-17 changes the evaluation of whether a reporting entity is the primary beneficiary of a Variable Interest Entity (VIE) by changing how a reporting entity that is a single decision maker of a VIE treats indirect interests in the entity held through related parties that are under common control with the reporting entity. ASU No. 2016-17 was effective for Adient for the quarter ended December 31, 2017. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on Adient's consolidated financial statements. In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)." ASU No. 2014-09 clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue when an entity either enters into a contract with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into a contract for the transfer of non-financial assets. In March 2016 the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-08, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net)," in April 2016 the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-10, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing," and in May 2016 the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-12, ‘‘Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients,’’which provide additional clarification on certain topics addressed in ASU No. 2014-09. ASU No. 2016-08, ASU No. 2016-10 and ASU No. 2016-12 follow the same implementation guidelines as ASU No. 2014-09 and ASU No. 2015-14. This guidance will be effective October 1, 2018 for Adient. The accounting changes under the new standard will require new processes and procedures to collect the data required for proper reporting and disclosure. Adient is undergoing its review of the impact of adopting this standard and is developing and executing an implementation plan which will include changes to internal processes and controls. Under current guidance Adient generally recognizes revenue when products are shipped and risk of loss has transferred to the customer. Under the new standard, the customized nature of some of Adient's products combined with contractual provisions that provide an enforceable right to payment, will likely require Adient to recognize revenue prior to the product being shipped to the customer. Adient is also assessing pricing provisions contained in certain customer contracts. It is possible that pricing provisions contained in some of Adient's customer contracts may provide the customer with a material right, potentially resulting in a different allocation of the transaction price than under current guidance. Adient expects to expand disclosures in line with the requirements of the new standard. Adient anticipates applying the modified retrospective method which would require Adient to recognize the cumulative effect of initially applying the standard as an adjustment to opening retained earnings at the date of initial application. |

Business Combinations [Abstract] | |
Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block] | 2. Acquisitions and Divestitures On January 16, 2018, Adient announced it will form a joint venture with The Boeing Company ("Boeing") called Adient Aerospace, LLC ("Adient Aerospace"). Adient's ownership position in Adient Aerospace will be 50.01%. Adient Aerospace will develop, manufacture, and sell a portfolio of seating products to airlines and aircraft leasing companies for installations on Boeing and other OEM commercial airplanes, for both production line-fit and retrofit configurations. Adient Aerospace's results will be included within the Seating segment. On September 22, 2017, Adient completed the acquisition of Futuris Global Holdings LLC ("Futuris"), a manufacturer of full seating systems, seat frames, seat trim, headrests, armrests and seat bolsters. The acquisition is expected to provide substantial synergies through vertical integration, purchasing and logistics improvements. The acquisition also provided for an immediate manufacturing presence on the west coast of the U.S. to service customers such as Tesla as well as strategic locations in China and Southeast Asia. During the three months ended December 31, 2017, Adient updated the Futuris purchase price allocation to adjust inventory, property, plant and equipment, goodwill, intangible assets and other liabilities as of the acquisition date for revised estimates based on an updated valuation. This measurement period adjustment was an increase to goodwill of $4 million , with corresponding adjustments to inventory, property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and other liabilities. This measurement period adjustment is also reflected in the goodwill table in Note 4 , " Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets ". As a result of the Futuris acquisition, consolidated Adient results include $120 million of net sales and an immaterial impact on net income in the three months ended December 31, 2017. The purchase price allocation is based on preliminary valuations to determine the fair value of the net assets as of the acquisition date and is subject to final adjustments. Pro forma historical results of operations related to the acquisition of Futuris have not been presented as they are not material to Adient’s consolidated statements of operations. As a result of the Guangzhou Adient Automotive Seating Co., Ltd. ("GAAS") consolidation in July 2017, consolidated Adient results include $89 million of net sales and an immaterial impact on net income in the three months ended December 31, 2017. The purchase price allocation is based on preliminary valuations to determine the fair value of the net assets as of the acquisition date and is subject to final adjustments. Pro forma historical results of operations related to the consolidation of GAAS have not been presented as they are not material to Adient’s consolidated statements of operations. |

Product Warranties Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Product Warranty Disclosure [Text Block] | 5. Product Warranties Adient offers warranties to its customers depending upon the specific product and terms of the customer purchase agreement. A typical warranty program requires that Adient replace defective products within a specified time period from the date of sale. Adient records an estimate for future warranty-related costs based on actual historical return rates and other known factors. Based on analysis of return rates and other factors, Adient's warranty provisions are adjusted as necessary. Adient monitors its warranty activity and adjusts its reserve estimates when it is probable that future warranty costs will be different than those estimates. Adient's product warranty liability is recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position in other current liabilities. The changes in Adient's total product warranty liability are as follows: Three Months Ended (in millions) 2017 2016 Balance at beginning of period $ 19 $ 13 Accruals for warranties issued during the period 2 1 Changes in accruals related to pre-existing warranties (including changes in estimates) (2 ) 4 Settlements made (in cash or in kind) during the period (2 ) (3 ) Balance at end of period $ 17 $ 15 |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | 7. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Adient selectively uses derivative instruments to reduce Adient's market risk associated with changes in foreign currency. Under Adient's policy, the use of derivatives is restricted to those intended for hedging purposes; the use of any derivative instrument for speculative purposes is strictly prohibited. A description of each type of derivative utilized to manage Adient's risk is included in the following paragraphs. In addition, refer to Note 8 , " Fair Value Measurements ," of the notes to consolidated financial statements for information related to the fair value measurements and valuation methods utilized by Adient for each derivative type. Adient has global operations and participates in the foreign exchange markets to minimize its risk of loss from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Adient primarily uses foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge certain foreign exchange rate exposures. Adient hedges 70% to 90% of the nominal amount of each of its known foreign exchange transactional exposures. Gains and losses on derivative contracts offset gains and losses on underlying foreign currency exposures. These contracts have been designated as cash flow hedges under ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging," and the effective portion of the hedge gains or losses due to changes in fair value are initially recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged transactions occur and affect earnings. Any ineffective portion of the hedge is reflected in the consolidated statements of income. These contracts were highly effective in hedging the variability in future cash flows attributable to changes in currency exchange rates at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017. Adient selectively uses equity swaps to reduce market risk associated with certain of its stock-based compensation plans, such as its deferred compensation plans. The equity swaps are recorded at fair value. Changes in fair value of the equity swaps are reflected in the consolidated statements of income within selling, general and administrative expenses. At December 31, 2017, the €1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 3.50% euro-denominated unsecured notes due 2024 was designated as a net investment hedge to selectively hedge portions of Adient's net investment in Europe. The currency effects of Adient's euro-denominated bonds are reflected in AOCI account within shareholders' equity attributable to Adient where they offset gains and losses recorded on Adient's net investment in Europe. The following table presents the location and fair values of derivative instruments and other amounts used in hedging activities included in Adient's consolidated statements of financial position: Derivatives and Hedging Activities Designated as Hedging Instruments under ASC 815 Derivatives and Hedging Activities Not Designated as Hedging Instruments under ASC 815 (in millions) December 31, September 30, December 31, September 30, Other current assets Foreign currency exchange derivatives $ 7 $ 4 $ — $ — Other noncurrent assets Foreign currency exchange derivatives — 1 — — Equity swaps — — — 3 Total assets $ 7 $ 5 $ — $ 3 Other current liabilities Foreign currency exchange derivatives $ 15 $ 6 $ 5 $ 2 Other noncurrent liabilities Foreign currency exchange derivatives 2 3 — — Long-term debt Foreign currency denominated debt 1,197 1,180 — — Total liabilities $ 1,214 $ 1,189 $ 5 $ 2 Adient enters into International Swaps and Derivatives Associations (ISDA) master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the net settlement of amounts owed under the derivative contracts. The master netting agreements generally provide for net settlement of all outstanding contracts with a counterparty in the case of an event of default or a termination event. Adient has not elected to offset the fair value positions of the derivative contracts recorded in the consolidated statements of financial position. Collateral is generally not required of Adient or the counterparties under the master netting agreements. As of both December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017, no cash collateral was received or pledged under the master netting agreements. The gross and net amounts of derivative instruments and other amounts used in hedging activities are as follows: Assets Liabilities (in millions) December 31, September 30, December 31, September 30, Gross amount recognized $ 7 $ 8 $ 1,219 $ 1,191 Gross amount eligible for offsetting (2 ) (2 ) (2 ) (2 ) Net amount $ 5 $ 6 $ 1,217 $ 1,189 The following table presents the effective portion of pretax gains (losses) recorded in other comprehensive income related to cash flow hedges: (in millions) Three Months Ended December 31, 2017 2016 Foreign currency exchange derivatives $ (7 ) $ (7 ) The following table presents the location and amount of the effective portion of pretax gains (losses) on cash flow hedges reclassified from AOCI into Adient's consolidated statements of income: (in millions) Three Months Ended December 31, 2017 2016 Foreign currency exchange derivatives Cost of sales $ 1 $ (3 ) The following table presents the location and amount of pretax gains (losses) on derivatives not designated as hedging instruments recognized in Adient's consolidated statements of income: (in millions) Three Months Ended December 31, 2017 2016 Foreign currency exchange derivatives Cost of sales $ (2 ) $ (14 ) Foreign currency exchange derivatives Net financing charges (1 ) 31 Equity swap Selling, general and administrative (3 ) (1 ) Total $ (6 ) $ 16 The effective portion of pretax gains (losses) recorded in currency translation adjustment (CTA) within other comprehensive income (loss) related to net investment hedges was $(17) million and $67 million for the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, no gains or losses were reclassified from CTA into income for Adient's outstanding net investment hedges, and no gains or losses were recognized in income for the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | 8. Fair Value Measurements ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement," defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes information used in developing assumptions when pricing an asset or liability as follows: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2: Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs where there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Recurring Fair Value Measurements The following tables present Adient's fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value: Fair Value Measurements Using: (in millions) Total as of December 31, 2017 Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Other current assets Foreign currency exchange derivatives $ 7 $ — $ 7 $ — Total assets $ 7 $ — $ 7 $ — Other current liabilities Foreign currency exchange derivatives $ 20 $ — $ 20 $ — Other noncurrent liabilities Foreign currency exchange derivatives 2 — 2 — Total liabilities $ 22 $ — $ 22 $ — Fair Value Measurements Using: (in millions) Total as of September 30, 2017 Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Other current assets Foreign currency exchange derivatives $ 4 $ — $ 4 $ — Other noncurrent assets Foreign currency exchange derivatives 1 — 1 — Equity swaps 3 — 3 — Total assets $ 8 $ — $ 8 $ — Other current liabilities Foreign currency exchange derivatives $ 8 $ — $ 8 $ — Other noncurrent liabilities Foreign currency exchange derivatives 3 — 3 — Total liabilities $ 11 $ — $ 11 $ — Valuation Methods Foreign currency exchange derivatives Adient selectively hedges anticipated transactions that are subject to foreign exchange rate risk primarily using foreign currency exchange hedge contracts. The foreign currency exchange derivatives are valued under a market approach using publicized spot and forward prices. Changes in fair value on foreign exchange derivatives accounted for as hedging instruments under ASC 815 are initially recorded as a component of AOCI and are subsequently reclassified into earnings when the hedged transactions occur and affect earnings. These contracts were highly effective in hedging the variability in future cash flows attributable to changes in currency exchange rates at December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017. The changes in fair value of foreign currency exchange derivatives not designated as hedging instruments under ASC 815 are recorded in the consolidated statements of income. Equity swaps Adient selectively uses equity swaps to reduce market risk associated with certain of its stock-based compensation plans, such as its deferred compensation plans. The equity swaps are recorded at fair value. Changes in fair value of the equity swaps are reflected in the consolidated statements of income within selling, general and administrative expenses. |

Restructuring Cost and Reserve [Line Items] | |
Restructuring and Related Activities Disclosure [Text Block] | 10. Restructuring and Impairment Costs To better align its resources with its growth strategies and reduce the cost structure of its global operations to address the softness in certain underlying markets, Adient commits to restructuring plans as necessary. In fiscal 2018, Adient committed to a restructuring plan ("2018 Plan") within the Seating segment for $13 million that was offset by underspend in the fiscal 2016 Plan. The restructuring actions relate to cost reduction initiatives and consist primarily of workforce reductions. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially completed by fiscal 2019. The following table summarizes the changes in Adient's 2018 Plan reserve: (in millions) Employee Severance and Termination Benefits Long-Lived Asset Impairments Other Currency Total Original Reserve $ 13 $ — $ — $ — $ 13 Balance at December 31, 2017 $ 13 $ — $ — $ — $ 13 In fiscal 2017, Adient committed to a restructuring plan ("2017 Plan") within the Seating segment and recorded $46 million of restructuring and impairment costs in the consolidated statements of income. This is the total amount expected to be incurred for this restructuring plan. The restructuring actions relate to cost reduction initiatives and consist primarily of workforce reductions and plant closures. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially complete in fiscal 2018. Adient maintained $11 million of Futuris restructuring reserves as of September 30, 2017 all of which was paid during the three months ended December 31, 2017. The following table summarizes the changes in Adient's 2017 Plan reserve: (in millions) Employee Severance and Termination Benefits Long-Lived Asset Impairments Other Currency Total Original Reserve $ 42 $ — $ 4 $ — $ 46 Utilized—cash (4 ) — (4 ) — (8 ) Balance at September 30, 2017 38 — — — 38 Utilized—cash (4 ) — — — (4 ) Balance at December 31, 2017 $ 34 $ — $ — $ — $ 34 In fiscal 2016, Adient committed to a restructuring plan ("2016 Plan") and recorded $332 million of restructuring and impairment costs in the consolidated statements of income. This is the total amount expected to be incurred for this restructuring plan. The restructuring actions relate to cost reduction initiatives and consist primarily of workforce reductions, plant closures and asset impairments. Of the restructuring and impairment costs recorded, $315 million relates to the Seating segment and $17 million relates to the Interiors segment. The asset impairment charge recorded during fiscal 2016 related primarily to information technology assets within the Seating segment that will not be used going forward by Adient. The other charges recorded in fiscal 2016 of $22 million relate primarily to restructuring costs at one of Adient's joint ventures which Adient had indemnified. The restructuring actions are expected to be substantially complete in fiscal 2018. Since the announcement of the 2016 Plan in fiscal 2016, Adient has experienced lower employee severance and termination benefit cash payouts than previously calculated of approximately $13 million , due to changes in cost reduction actions. The planned workforce reductions disclosed for the 2016 Plan have been updated for Adient's revised actions. The following table summarizes the changes in Adient's 2016 Plan reserve: (in millions) Employee Severance and Termination Benefits Long-Lived Asset Impairments Other Currency Total Original Reserve $ 223 $ 87 $ 22 $ — $ 332 Utilized—cash (29 ) — (1 ) — (30 ) Utilized—noncash — (87 ) — (2 ) (89 ) Balance at September 30, 2016 194 — 21 (2 ) 213 Utilized—cash (48 ) — (12 ) — (60 ) Utilized—noncash — — — 7 7 Balance at September 30, 2017 146 — 9 5 160 Noncash adjustment—underspend (13 ) — — — (13 ) Utilized—cash (12 ) — — — (12 ) Balance at December 31, 2017 $ 121 $ — $ 9 $ 5 $ 135 Adient's fiscal 2018, 2017 and 2016 restructuring plans included workforce reductions of approximately 4,000 . Restructuring charges associated with employee severance and termination benefits are paid over the severance period granted to each employee or on a lump sum basis in accordance with individual severance agreements. As of December 31, 2017, approximately 2,000 of the employees have been separated from Adient pursuant to the restructuring plans. In addition, the restructuring plans included eighteen plant closures. As of December 31, 2017, ten of the eighteen plants have been closed. Adient's management closely monitors its overall cost structure and continually analyzes each of its businesses for opportunities to consolidate current operations, improve operating efficiencies and locate facilities in low cost countries in close proximity to customers. This ongoing analysis includes a review of its manufacturing, engineering, purchasing and administrative functions, as well as the overall global footprint for all its businesses. Because of the importance of new vehicle sales by major automotive manufacturers to operations, Adient is affected by the general business conditions in the automotive industry. Future adverse developments in the automotive industry could impact Adient's liquidity position, lead to impairment charges and/or require additional restructuring of its operations. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | 11. Income Taxes In calculating the provision for income taxes, Adient uses an estimate of the annual effective tax rate based upon the facts and circumstances known at each interim period. On a quarterly basis, the actual effective tax rate is adjusted, as appropriate, based on changes in facts and circumstances, if any, as compared to those forecasted at the beginning of the fiscal year and each interim period thereafter. For the three months ended December 31, 2017, Adient’s effective tax rate was 384% . The effective rate was higher than the statutory rate of 12.5% primarily due to the charge to recognize the impact of the U.S. tax reform legislation and unfavorable foreign exchange. For the three months ended December 31, 2016, Adient’s effective tax rate was 14% . The effective rate was higher than the statutory rate primarily due to a tax law change in Hungary, partially offset by benefits from global tax planning. Uncertain Tax Positions At December 31, 2017, Adient had gross tax effected unrecognized tax benefits of $191 million , essentially all of which, if recognized, would impact the effective tax rate. Total net accrued interest at December 31, 2017 was approximately $3 million (net of tax benefit). The interest and penalties accrued during the three months ended December 31, 2017 was not material. Adient recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. Impacts of Tax Legislation and Change in Statutory Tax Rates On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”) was signed and enacted into law, and is effective for tax years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, with the exception of certain provisions. As a fiscal year taxpayer, Adient will not be subject to the majority of the provisions until fiscal year 2019, however the statutory tax rate reduction is effective January 1, 2018. The Act reduces the U.S. corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% . Adient’s fiscal 2018 estimated annual effective tax rate reflects the benefit from the reduced rate of 24.5% resulting from the application of Internal Revenue Code, Section 15 which provides for a proration of the newly enacted rate during this fiscal year. This benefit is offset by a non-cash estimated tax expense of $150 million related to the remeasurement of Adient’s net deferred tax assets at the lower statutory rate, a non-cash estimated tax expense of $100 million related to recording a valuation allowance to reflect the reduced benefit Adient expects to realize as a result of being subject to the Base Erosion and Anti-avoidance Tax ("BEAT"), and an estimated cash tax expense of $8 million related to the transition tax imposed on previously untaxed earnings and profits. Adient is projecting that it will be subject to BEAT, a parallel tax system, for the foreseeable future. In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Adient is disclosing the estimated income tax impact. Although the $258 million tax expense represents what Adient believes is a reasonable estimate of the impact of the income tax effects of the Act on its consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2017, it is a provisional amount and will be impacted by Adient’s on-going analysis of the legislation and the full year fiscal 2018 financial results. The Act makes broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code, and in certain instances, lacks clarity and is subject to interpretation until additional Internal Revenue Service guidance is issued. The ultimate impact of the Act may differ from Adient's estimates due to changes in the interpretations and assumptions made as well as any forthcoming regulatory guidance. Adient will continue to assess the provisions of the Act and the anticipated impact to income tax expense and will disclose the anticipated impact on its consolidated financial statements in future financial filings. Any adjustments to these provisional amounts will be reported as a component of income tax expense (benefit) in the reporting period in which any such adjustments are determined, which will be no later than the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Other tax legislation was adopted during the quarter in various jurisdictions, which did not have a material impact on Adient’s consolidated financial statements. In the first quarter of fiscal 2017, Hungary passed the 2017 tax bill which reduced the corporate income tax rate to a flat 9% rate. As a result of the law change, Adient recorded income tax expense of $5 million related to the write down of deferred tax assets. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block] | 12. Segment Information Adient evaluates the performance of its reportable segments using an adjusted EBIT metric defined as income before income taxes and noncontrolling interests, excluding net financing charges, qualified restructuring and impairment costs, restructuring related-costs, incremental "Becoming Adient" costs, separation costs, net mark-to-market adjustments on pension and postretirement plans, transaction gains/losses, purchase accounting amortization and other non-recurring items ("Adjusted EBIT"). The reportable segments are consistent with how management views the markets served by Adient and reflect the financial information that is reviewed by its chief operating decision maker. Adient has two reportable segments for financial reporting purposes: Seating and Interiors. • The Seating segment produces seat metal structures and mechanisms, foam, trim, fabric and complete seat systems for automotive and other mobility applications. • The Interiors segment, derived from its global automotive interiors joint ventures, produces instrument panels, floor consoles, door panels, overhead consoles, cockpit systems, decorative trim and other products.

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | 14. Commitments and Contingencies Adient accrues for potential environmental liabilities when it is probable a liability has been incurred and the amount of the liability is reasonably estimable. Reserves for environmental liabilities totaled $9 million at both December 31, 2017 and September 30, 2017. Adient reviews the status of its environmental sites on a quarterly basis and adjusts its reserves accordingly. Such potential liabilities accrued by Adient do not take into consideration possible recoveries of future insurance proceeds. They do, however, take into account the likely share other parties will bear at remediation sites. It is difficult to estimate Adient's ultimate level of liability at many remediation sites due to the large number of other parties that may be involved, the complexity of determining the relative liability among those parties, the uncertainty as to the nature and scope of the investigations and remediation to be conducted, the uncertainty in the application of law and risk assessment, the various choices and costs associated with diverse technologies that may be used in corrective actions at the sites, and the often quite lengthy periods over which eventual remediation may occur. Nevertheless, Adient does not currently believe that any claims, penalties or costs in connection with known environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on Adient's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Adient is involved in various lawsuits, claims and proceedings incident to the operation of its businesses, including those pertaining to product liability, casualty environmental, safety and health, intellectual property, employment, commercial and contractual matters, and various other matters. Although the outcome of any such lawsuit, claim or proceeding cannot be predicted with certainty and some may be disposed of unfavorably to Adient, it is management's opinion that none of these will have a material adverse effect on Adient's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Costs related to such matters were not material to the periods presented. |

Related Party Transactions In the ordinary course of business, Adient enters into transactions with related parties, such as equity affiliates. Such transactions consist of facility management services, the sale or purchase of goods and other arrangements. Subsequent to the separation, transactions with the former Parent and its businesses represent third-party transactions. The following table sets forth the net sales to and purchases from related parties included in the consolidated statements of income: Three Months Ended (in millions) 2017 2016 Net sales $ 99 $ 98 Cost of sales 137 100 The following table sets forth the amount of accounts receivable due from and payable to related parties in the consolidated statements of financial position: (in millions) December 31, 2017 September 30, 2017 Accounts receivable $ 158 $ 129 Accounts payable 122 104 Average receivable and payable balances with related parties remained consistent with the period end balances shown above. Allocations from Former Parent During fiscal 2017, allocations from the former Parent were insignificant. During fiscal 2017, Adient and the former Parent finalized the reconciliation of working capital and other accounts and the net amount due from the former Parent of $87 million was settled during the quarter ended March 31, 2017 in accordance with the separation agreement. The impact of the settlement is reflected within additional paid-in capital. |

The following tables disclose the quarterly impact for the three months ended December 31, 2016 of such previously disclosed revisions. Adient assessed the materiality of these misstatements on prior periods’ financial statements in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin ("SAB") No. 99, Materiality, codified in ASC 250, Presentation of Financial Statements, and concluded that these misstatements were not material, individually or in the aggregate, to any previously issued financial statements.
