2017 AUDI A3 quattro Premium Plus

The auction record lists the vehicle as “CERT OF TITLE-SALVAGE” with a primary damage designation of “FRONT END.” The visible broken and displaced front bumper components support the auction’s FRONT END damage claim. However, the salvage-title status itself cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The 2017 Audi A3 has severe damage concentrated at the driver-side front corner. The front bumper cover and fascia are fractured, displaced, and pulled away from the body, with open gaps exposing components behind the bumper. A section of the driver-side bumper is missing, and the lower bumper assembly, trim, and lip are detached and hanging below the front end. One detached trim piece is visible on the ground. The available findings are limited to exterior bumper damage; they do not confirm the condition of the underlying structure, lighting components, cooling system, safety systems, or mechanical components. Factory data identifies this vehicle as a 2017 Audi A3 sedan with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, automatic transmission, and quattro all-wheel drive. It was manufactured by Audi AG in Hungary. Two NHTSA recalls are listed for this model year. Recall 21V198000 concerns the front passenger occupant-detection system, which may deactivate the passenger airbag when the seat is occupied; the remedy involves replacing the sensor mat and updating 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 supplied recall description specifies front-wheel-drive A3 models for this fuel-system campaign, so applicability to this all-wheel-drive vehicle should be confirmed by VIN with Audi. Recall completion status is not provided.
