2017 AUDI A4 PREMIUM

The auction record lists the vehicle condition as “Clear” and the primary damage as “Left Front.” Stage 1’s photo-based assessment supports the Left Front classification, identifying clear damage to the left front bumper, fender, hood edge, and headlamp. Stage 1 also reports that the visible damage contradicts the auction’s “Clear” condition designation. The main damage is concentrated at the left front corner. The bumper cover has multiple open cracks and torn sections near the outer corner, with missing material and scuffing. The left front fender is dented and creased around and behind the wheel opening, with chipped and scuffed paint. The left front headlamp lens has multiple linear cracks or fractures, and the surrounding lamp-to-body edge is irregular. The left front edge of the hood is dented with an uneven contour. There is also a visible opening and irregular separation at the bumper-to-fender junction, with broken and displaced plastic edges. A small dark surface mark is visible on the lower left rear bumper. No known failure-pattern flags were provided. The findings do not establish the condition of hidden components, mounting points, lighting operation, steering or suspension, safety systems, or the vehicle’s mechanical systems; these should be checked during a physical inspection and repair estimate. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2017 Audi A4 sedan built by Audi AG in Germany, with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine and automatic transmission. The vehicle is equipped with front, side, curtain, and knee airbag locations according to the available factory data. NHTSA recall 21V874000 applies to certain 2017–2020 Audi A4 Sedan vehicles. The recall concerns a contact fault in the cable connecting the seat heater to the Passenger Occupant Detection System, which may cause the passenger airbag to be disabled. The remedy involves replacement of the connecting cable and either the heating mat or the entire seat cover, free of charge. Recall completion should be verified with Audi or an authorized dealer using the VIN.
