2020 AUDI A4

The auction record lists the vehicle as **Salvage**, with **Left Front** identified as the primary damage area. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the Left Front damage classification through substantial damage at the left front corner.

The left front headlamp assembly is missing, leaving an open cavity with internal mounting and wiring components exposed. The left front bumper cover has a severely damaged, irregular opening with broken edges and exposed components. The left front fender has moderate deformation, including sharp creases and folded sections around the headlamp opening and wheel arch. The lower left bumper opening has missing or broken trim, exposing the auxiliary lamp assembly and mounting hardware. Light-colored paint abrasion is also visible on the left front fender and adjacent bumper corner. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2020 Audi A4 sedan with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, an automatic transmission, and the quattro Premium Plus trim. The vehicle was manufactured by Audi AG in Germany. NHTSA records list three recalls applicable to this model and year.
