2015 AUDI Q5 Premium Plus

The auction record lists this 2015 Audi Q5 as a salvage vehicle with “FRONT END” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the front-end classification is supported by the damaged and separated front-left bumper assembly; however, salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The front-left bumper cover is moderately damaged. It is separated from the adjacent headlamp and fender area, with open gaps along the upper corner and lower edge. The bumper cover also shows cracking, deformation, and an irregular opening around the lower lamp and grille area. A section of the black lower bumper grille/trim next to the left fog lamp is missing. The bumper assembly and its mounting points should be inspected, along with the headlamp, fender, fog lamp, grille components, and any underlying structural or mechanical parts in the impact area. A check-engine warning lamp is illuminated in the instrument cluster. This indicates a possible engine or emissions-system fault, but the specific cause cannot be determined from the available findings. Diagnostic scanning and a complete mechanical inspection are recommended before purchase. VIN decoding identifies the vehicle as a German-built 2015 Audi Q5 Premium Plus SUV with a 1.984-liter turbocharged gasoline four-cylinder engine. The decoded VIN is WA1LFAFP8FA028843. NHTSA records show recalls for this vehicle range involving the auxiliary-heater wiring, sunroof drainage and side-airbag inflator corrosion, the electric coolant pump, the fuel-pump flange, and certain 2015 Q5 side-airbag inflators manufactured during the affected production period. The recorded remedies include inspections, software updates, component replacement, or protective measures as applicable. Recall completion for this individual vehicle should be verified with an Audi dealer using the VIN before operation.
