2021 AUDI Q3

The auction lists the vehicle as Salvage with Front End as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that visible evidence supports the Front End classification, with extensive damage and missing components concentrated at the front. The Salvage designation itself cannot be independently confirmed from exterior photographs. The vehicle is a 2021 Audi Q3, identified by VIN WA1AUCF37M1104300. Factory data describes it as a quattro Premium SUV with all-wheel drive, a gasoline 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. It was manufactured by Audi AG in Hungary. The front-end damage is extensive and severe. Multiple components are absent or broken in the left front engine-bay area, with exposed wiring, brackets, mounting pieces, and internal parts. The left headlamp is missing. The left front fender and wheel-arch area are deformed and separated from the hood and bumper. The hood has several prominent creases and uneven raised sections across its front half, with an open gap above the grille. The front bumper, lower fascia, grille, and related support pieces are broken, displaced, or missing. Several black plastic panels are detached, and loose wiring is hanging at the front. The radiator and other cooling-system components are exposed behind the missing or displaced front fascia. The left front tire appears substantially deflated and compressed against the floor. A red BRAKE warning is displayed in the instrument cluster with the message, “Brakes: stop vehicle and check brake fluid level.” This requires inspection of the brake-fluid level and the complete braking system before any attempt to drive the vehicle. The driver airbag has deployed from the steering wheel, indicating that the restraint system will also require inspection and repair. NHTSA records show two recalls associated with this model and year. Recall 21V606000 concerns the middle-rear seat-belt automatic locking retractor, which may deactivate early and prevent a child restraint from securing properly. Recall 22V673000 concerns possible damage to the fuel-tank vent pipe, which may allow fuel to spill from the filler neck when the cap is opened. The buyer should verify the vehicle’s recall completion status with Audi using the VIN, as well as determine whether any collision-related restraint, braking, cooling, structural, or mechanical issues remain.
