2015 AUDI A3 Premium

The vehicle is a 2015 Audi A3 sedan, VIN WAUACGFF8F1010632. The auction record identifies the vehicle as having a SALVAGE CERTIFICATE with FRONT END as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible severe front-end damage supports the FRONT END classification; the salvage-certificate status is administrative and cannot be confirmed from photographs. The front end has extensive collision damage. The hood is severely creased and deformed across the front-left area, with the leading edge raised and uneven. The front bumper and lower fascia are cracked, torn, displaced, and partially missing, exposing internal components. The front-left headlamp assembly is missing, leaving wiring and other components visible. The front-left fender is crushed and torn around the headlamp and wheel-arch area, while the left grille and adjacent fascia contain broken and displaced plastic with open gaps. The driver steering-wheel airbag is deployed, and the left curtain airbag is hanging along the roofline and windshield area. The condition of other restraint-system components, structural elements, wiring, cooling components, suspension, and mechanical systems is not established by the provided findings and should be checked during a physical inspection. Factory data identifies this car as a gasoline-powered 1.8-liter four-cylinder model with an automatic transmission. The VIN decode lists the Premium trim and production in Győr, Hungary; drivetrain information was not provided. Two NHTSA recalls are listed for this model and year. Recall 21V198000 concerns the front-passenger occupant-detection system, which may deactivate the passenger airbag when the seat is occupied. Recall 24V110000 concerns a fuel-tank suction-jet-pump seal on applicable front-wheel-drive vehicles, which may allow fuel to enter the evaporative-emissions system and potentially leak. Recall completion should be verified with Audi using the VIN before purchase, particularly because the vehicle’s drivetrain was not identified in the available decode. Overall, the documented condition indicates severe front-end collision damage with deployed airbags and extensive parts replacement and restraint-system repairs required.
