2021 AUDI Q3

The vehicle is listed by the auction as salvage, with “Front End” recorded as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the Front End damage code: the front bumper, grille components, and one headlamp are missing, and the hood is visibly deformed. The salvage status itself cannot be confirmed from photographs. The front bumper cover is absent, exposing the radiator area, lower support components, and wiring. The front grille and surrounding fascia are also missing, leaving an open area in front of the radiator. The right headlamp, viewed from the front, is absent, with its mounting points and internal components exposed. The hood has a raised, uneven deformation across the front-center and right side. A detached white bumper cover with black grille and reinforcement components is lying separately from the vehicle. The plastic wheel-arch trim is missing around the visible front wheel, leaving the mounting holes exposed. The instrument cluster displays a “Vehicle lights malfunction! Please contact Service” message together with a yellow warning symbol. The full condition of the cooling system, front structural components, wiring, lighting system, sensors, and mechanical systems requires physical inspection and testing. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2021 Audi Q3 quattro Premium SUV with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Audi AG in Hungary. Two applicable NHTSA safety recalls are listed for this model and year. Recall 21V606000 concerns the middle-rear seat-belt automatic locking retractor, which may deactivate early and fail to secure a child restraint properly; inspection and replacement, if necessary, were specified as the remedy. Recall 22V673000 concerns possible damage to the fuel-tank vent pipe, which may allow fuel to spill from the filler neck when the fuel cap is opened; inspection and replacement of the charcoal canister and fuel tank, if necessary, were specified. Recall completion should be verified with an Audi dealer using the VIN.
