2022 AUDI E-TRON quattro Premium Plus

The auction record lists the vehicle as “CERT OF TITLE SLVG REBUILDABLE” with a primary damage classification of “FRONT END.” Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end damage supports the FRONT END classification; however, the salvage/rebuildable title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The vehicle has severe collision damage concentrated at the front end. The front bumper cover and fascia are torn, broken, or missing in several areas, leaving large openings and internal components exposed. One front headlamp assembly or part of the assembly is absent, and the adjacent headlamp area is open. The hood’s front edge is raised, uneven, and misaligned, with irregular gaps above the fascia and headlamp. A front fender is creased and irregular around the headlamp and wheel arch. A displaced black trim panel is also visible along the front edge of the open front compartment. Curtain airbags are visibly deployed along both rooflines, including the front and rear side-window areas. This indicates that the restraint system will require inspection and likely replacement of affected components. The supplied findings do not confirm the condition of the structural members, suspension, steering, cooling systems, high-voltage battery, electrical systems, or vehicle operation. A comprehensive physical inspection and diagnostic scan are recommended before purchase, with particular attention to collision structure, airbag and seat-belt systems, wiring, sensors, and the electric powertrain. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2022 Audi e-tron Sportback, an all-wheel-drive, fully electric SUV/MPV with an automatic single-speed transmission. The decoded trim is quattro Premium Plus, and the vehicle was manufactured by Audi AG in Belgium. Several NHTSA recalls are listed for this model and model year. They include recalls involving rear-view camera display software, the infotainment unit, the 220V/240V portable charging cable, and high-voltage battery thermal-management software. The battery-related recall concerns possible overheating of certain high-voltage battery modules and may require monitoring software and, where necessary, module replacement. A further rear-view camera software recall is also listed. Recall completion status is not provided and should be verified by VIN with Audi or NHTSA before purchase.
