2015 AUDI A3 S Line quattro Prestige

The 2015 Audi A3 is listed by the auction with a SALVAGE CERTIFICATE and FRONT END as the primary damage classification. These are auction designations and should be verified against the vehicle’s title and history records. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the FRONT END classification, with open and uneven gaps at the front bumper, hood, and adjacent body panels. The photographs cannot independently confirm the SALVAGE CERTIFICATE status. The main visible damage is concentrated at the front right corner. There is a pronounced open gap between the front bumper and the adjacent fender/headlamp area. The hood’s front edge and nearby body-panel gaps are also uneven and open at the same corner, consistent with front-end collision damage. Light scuffing and surface marks are visible on the lower front bumper. Red seat-belt and yellow supplemental-restraint warning indicators are illuminated in the instrument cluster. The available image does not establish the reason for these warnings or the condition of the related systems, so the restraint system should be professionally diagnosed before purchase or operation. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2015 Audi A3 Sedan with an all-wheel-drive system, a 1.984-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and an automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Audi AG in Hungary and is identified as the S line quattro Prestige trim. Two NHTSA recall campaigns are listed for this model year. Recall 21V198000 concerns the front-passenger occupant detection system, which may deactivate the passenger air bag when the seat is occupied; the remedy involves replacement of the sensor mat and an update to the control module. Recall 24V110000 concerns a fuel-tank suction-jet-pump seal on certain front-wheel-drive A3 vehicles and may not apply to this all-wheel-drive vehicle. Recall completion should nevertheless be confirmed with Audi using the VIN.
