2019 AUDI Q5 45 PREMIUM

The 2019 Audi Q5 is listed with an auction condition of “Clear” and a primary-damage classification of “Right Side.” Stage 1 reports that the photographs contradict the “Clear” condition claim because extensive collision damage is visibly present. The visible damage is concentrated on the right side and supports the “Right Side” damage classification. The right front door is severely crushed, with deep dents, sharp creases, paint scuffing, and deformation extending into the lower door edge and adjacent sill. The right rear door also has extensive deep dents and irregular creasing, including damage around the door handle and lower panel. The right rocker panel and lower side skirt beneath the doors show pronounced crushing, folding, and uneven deformation. The right rear quarter panel has moderate dents and creases around the front of the wheel arch and below the fuel-filler door. Portions of the wheel-arch trim are missing, leaving mounting holes exposed. At the front, a large section of the right bumper cover is missing, exposing internal components. The lower bumper trim is detached and hanging down, and the right front wheel-arch trim is partially missing or detached with broken edges and exposed mounting points. Inside the cabin, the side-curtain airbags are deployed, with inflated fabric hanging along the roofline and across the side-window areas. This indicates that substantial restraint-system inspection and repair will be required in addition to the visible bodywork. According to the VIN decode, this is a four-door Audi Q5 SUV with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and an automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Audi AG in Mexico and is identified as the quattro Premium Plus trim. NHTSA records list several recalls applicable to 2019 Audi Q5 vehicles, including recalls involving the gateway control module and possible engine-power reduction, wheel-arch trim detachment, the passenger frontal airbag and instrument-panel carrier, rear wheel-arch trim retention, and the brake master cylinder. Recall completion status is not provided and should be verified with Audi using the VIN before purchase. Given the collision damage and deployed airbags, a complete structural, mechanical, electrical, and restraint-system inspection is strongly recommended.
