2015 AUDI A3 Premium Plus

The auction record lists the condition as “CERTIFICATE OF TITLE” and the primary damage as “FRONT END.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence partially supports the unverified front-end claim: the front bumper is missing its lower grille or trim inserts, but no major front-end deformation is visible. The certificate-of-title claim cannot be confirmed from the available photos. The front bumper is missing the grille or trim inserts from both outer lower openings, leaving open cavities, mounting points, and some internal components visible. Dark scuffing and abrasion are also present on the lower front bumper. The lower rear bumper has several horizontal paint scrapes. Inside the vehicle, the trim surrounding the gear selector and adjacent upper center-console trim are missing. Light-colored internal components and mounting areas are exposed around the selector. These findings indicate incomplete exterior and interior trim, but the available findings do not establish the condition of the underlying mechanical, electrical, safety, or structural systems. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2015 Audi A3 sedan with a 1.968-liter, four-cylinder diesel engine, automatic transmission, and Premium Plus trim. The vehicle was manufactured by Audi AG in Hungary. Two NHTSA recall records are listed for the 2015 Audi A3. Recall 21V198000 concerns the front passenger occupant-detection system, which may deactivate the passenger air bag when the seat is occupied; the remedy is replacement of the sensor mat and an update to the control module. Recall 24V110000 concerns a fuel-tank suction-jet-pump seal that may allow fuel to enter the evaporative-emissions system and potentially leak from the charcoal canister; the remedy is replacement of the suction pump. Because the VIN decode identifies this vehicle as diesel while the fuel-system recall description refers to gasoline vehicles, recall applicability should be verified by VIN with Audi before purchase. Recall completion status is not provided.
