2022 AUDI Q3 quattro Premium

The vehicle is listed with a PERMIT SALVAGE condition and a FRONT END primary-damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the stated FRONT END damage code; however, the permit-salvage status cannot be confirmed from photos alone. The recorded damage is severe and concentrated at the front-right corner. The hood is heavily buckled and deformed, while the front bumper, grille, fascia, right headlamp, headlamp surround, fender, and wheel-arch area are broken, displaced, or partially missing. Internal components and wiring are exposed, and multiple detached bumper and trim pieces are present beside the vehicle. The findings also note deformation in the front-end structural area. Paint abrasion and transfer marks are visible on the hood and front fender. Multiple airbags have deployed, including the steering-wheel airbag, passenger-dashboard airbag, driver lower-dashboard airbag, and curtain airbags along both roof edges. Curtain-airbag fabric is visibly hanging from the roof and upper side areas. The airbag and restraint systems will require thorough inspection and appropriate replacement before the vehicle can be considered safe for road use. The available findings do not establish the condition of the engine, transmission, drivetrain, suspension, cooling system, or other components not visible in the recorded damage findings. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2022 Audi Q3 quattro Premium SUV with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline 40 TFSI engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Audi AG in Hungary. Official NHTSA recall records identify five recalls applicable to this make, model, and year. They concern rear-view camera display software, a potentially damaged fuel-tank vent pipe, possible rear-window cracking or breakage, and an infotainment-unit fault that may disable the rear-view camera display. Recall remedies include software updates, inspection or replacement of affected fuel-system and rear-window components, and infotainment-unit replacement where required. The completion status of these recalls for this specific vehicle should be verified by VIN with Audi or an authorized dealer.
