2014 AUDI A5 quattro Premium

This 2014 Audi A5 is listed with a salvage collision title and a FRONT END primary-damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports both the stated collision claim and the front-end primary-damage claim, with severe deformation and broken or missing components concentrated at the front of the vehicle. The front end has extensive collision damage. The hood is severely crushed and heavily creased, mainly on the left side, with a large uneven gap above the front fascia. The front bumper cover and lower fascia are cracked, torn, displaced, and missing sections. The grille and surrounding trim are broken and displaced, leaving gaps that expose components behind them. The left headlamp assembly has a broken lens and housing, exposed internal parts, and a displaced adjacent amber lamp section. The left front fender and adjacent corner panels show severe crushing, sharp creases, broken edges, and displaced material. Additional rippling and deformation are visible around the fender wheel arch and hood junction. Cooling components and their mounting areas are exposed behind the damaged or missing front fascia. The windshield has multiple branching cracks near the lower central area. Multiple airbags have deployed, including the steering-wheel airbag, front passenger airbag, curtain airbags along the roof and side-window areas, and the driver knee airbag. Further inspection will be required to assess the restraint system, structural components, cooling system, lighting and electrical systems, and any mechanical damage not visible in the provided findings. VIN decoding identifies the vehicle as a German-built 2014 Audi A5 Coupe with quattro all-wheel drive, a 1.984-litre four-cylinder gasoline/E85 engine, and an automatic transmission. NHTSA records identify three applicable recall campaigns: 17V622000 concerning auxiliary-heater wiring that may overheat or melt; 17V002000 concerning an electric coolant pump that may overheat if blocked; and 18V229000 concerning the same coolant-pump system, including the possibility of overheating or a moisture-related short circuit. The completion status of these recalls for this vehicle should be verified with Audi or an authorized dealer.
