2015 AUDI A6 Premium

The vehicle is a 2015 Audi A6 sedan, VIN WAUDFAFC7FN005096. Factory data identifies a 2.0-litre, four-cylinder gasoline engine with automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Audi AG in Germany. The auction record lists a Certificate of Salvage and “FRONT END” as the primary-damage classification. These are auction designations and are not independently confirmed by the supplied findings. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence does not support the FRONT END classification: the most prominent damage is concentrated along the left front fender, left-side doors, and rocker panel, with no clear front-end impact deformation visible. Stage 1 also reports that the salvage-certificate status cannot be confirmed from the photographs. The most significant visible damage is concentrated on the left side. The left front fender and front door have extensive crushed and sharply creased sheet-metal deformation, chipped and scraped paint, and dark transfer marks. The left rear door has multiple long horizontal scratches, paint-transfer marks, and localized dents. The rocker panel and lower sill beneath both left-side doors are deeply creased, irregularly deformed, and scraped, indicating potentially substantial damage to the lower body structure. A few minor dark scuff marks are also visible on the lower-left rear bumper cover. The driver’s steering-wheel airbag, the lower dashboard or knee-airbag area, and an airbag in the left front seat-side area are visibly deployed. Replacement of the deployed restraint components, along with inspection of the airbag control system, seat-belt pretensioners, wiring, sensors, and surrounding structural areas, should be expected. The supplied findings do not confirm the condition of the vehicle’s mechanical, suspension, steering, electrical, or drivetrain systems. Official NHTSA recall records provided for this vehicle include recalls concerning the 2.0-litre engine electric coolant pump, which may overheat or short-circuit and increase fire risk; the auxiliary-heater electrical connector, which may overheat; and the passenger-seat occupant-classification system, which may affect passenger-airbag deployment. The records also include an earlier coolant-pump software-update recall. Recall completion status is not provided, so the vehicle’s VIN should be checked with Audi or an authorized dealer before purchase. A comprehensive physical inspection is strongly recommended, including measurement of the left-side body structure and rocker area, inspection beneath the vehicle, suspension and wheel alignment checks, diagnostic scanning, and verification of all airbag and recall repairs.
