2018 AUDI A6 quattro Premium Plus

The vehicle is a 2018 Audi A6 sedan with a salvage-title designation recorded by the auction. The auction lists “FRONT END” as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible severe front-end damage supports this primary-damage claim; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The front end has extensive severe collision damage, concentrated primarily on the vehicle-left side. The hood is heavily creased, buckled, and deformed across the front and left sections. The vehicle-left front fender is crushed and torn around the wheel opening and front corner, with underlying components exposed. The vehicle-left headlamp assembly is missing, leaving its mounting area and internal components exposed. The front bumper cover is cracked, broken, and separated from the body, with the vehicle-left corner displaced and hanging away from the vehicle. The grille surround and adjacent grille sections are broken and displaced, creating substantial openings into the front end. Radiator-area components, brackets, wiring, and other internal parts are visibly exposed because the bumper and grille components are absent or displaced. Loose wiring and detached exterior trim are also visible in the vehicle-left lower front area. The extent of the visible damage means that the condition of structural, cooling, lighting, restraint, electrical, and mechanical components cannot be determined from these findings alone and requires a thorough physical inspection. Inside, the black leather driver’s seat has minor surface abrasions and scuffing on the lower cushion and outer side bolster. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a Germany-built 2018 Audi A6 quattro Premium Plus sedan with all-wheel drive, a 3.0-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and an automatic transmission. Two NHTSA safety recalls are listed for this model and year: recall 19V035000 concerns possible fuel-rail leaks that may increase the risk of fire, and recall 18V370000 concerns the passenger occupant-detection system, which may affect front passenger airbag deployment. The completion status of these recalls should be verified with Audi using the VIN.
