2017 AUDI A4 ALLROAD Premium Plus

The vehicle is a 2017 Audi A4 allroad, VIN WA18NAF49HA170426. The auction lists the vehicle as “PERMIT SALVAGE” with “FRONT END” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end damage supports the FRONT END classification; however, the permit-salvage status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The documented damage is concentrated at the front left corner. The driver-side headlamp assembly is missing, leaving an open cavity with internal mounting points and wiring visible. The front bumper corner and lower bumper area have large openings, broken edges, and missing exterior sections or trim. A detached headlamp assembly and multiple front-end plastic panels were also observed on the ground beside the vehicle. With the hood open, the radiator and other internal front-end components are exposed because the surrounding covers and left headlamp are absent in the photographed area. The full extent of structural, cooling-system, electrical, suspension, restraint-system, and mechanical damage cannot be determined from these findings. A physical inspection is recommended before purchase, including checks of the front rails and mounting points, radiator and condenser assembly, wiring, sensors, lighting circuits, alignment, airbags and seat-belt pretensioners, and the vehicle’s ability to start and drive. Factory data identifies this vehicle as a Germany-built Audi A4 allroad crossover utility vehicle with a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine rated at 252 horsepower. It is listed in Premium Plus trim with five seats, 18-inch wheels, and standard systems including parking sensors, Audi Pre Sense features, blind-spot monitoring, forward-collision warning, pedestrian automatic emergency braking, and a rear-visibility system. The decoded data does not specify the drivetrain or transmission. NHTSA records show the following recalls for this model and model year: campaign 17V675000, concerning loose aluminum door-speaker trim that may leave sharp edges; campaign 16V642000, concerning software that may cause side-marker lights not to operate with the parking or headlamps; campaign 16V955000, concerning driver or passenger airbags or seat-belt pretensioners that may not function properly; campaign 18V836000, concerning a passenger-airbag mounting screw that may affect deployment; and campaign 19V547000, concerning the passenger-occupant detection system cable, which may disable the passenger airbag.
