2018 AUDI Q3

The vehicle is a 2018 Audi Q3, VIN WA1HCCFS7JR018359. The NHTSA VIN decode identifies it as a gasoline-powered SUV with a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder engine and automatic transmission. It was manufactured by Audi AG in Spain. The auction lists the vehicle as having a salvage certificate with “FRONT END” as the primary damage. The visible findings support the stated front-end damage claim: the front bumper cover, grille, lower fascia, and corner fascia components are missing or detached, exposing the bumper reinforcement bar, radiator area, washer reservoir, wiring, cooling components, and other internal front-end parts. The bumper cover mounting edges appear broken or irregular, with multiple mounting points and openings exposed. The provided findings do not establish the condition of the underlying structural, mechanical, electrical, or cooling systems, which should be inspected before purchase. The salvage certificate status itself cannot be confirmed from the available photos. Inside the vehicle, the brown leather driver’s seat has creasing and surface wear on the cushion and outer bolster. The rear leather seat cushions also show visible creasing and surface wear. These are reported as minor cosmetic issues. One NHTSA safety recall is listed for this 2018 Audi Q3: campaign 19V385000, concerning the exterior lighting turn-signal system on vehicles equipped with LED headlights. An inoperable front turn signal may fail to display an indicator to the driver. The listed remedy is a free body control module software update by an Audi dealer. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with Audi or an authorized dealer.
