2019 AUDI Q5 quattro Premium Plus

The auction record lists this 2019 Audi Q5 as “CERT OF TITLE—SALVAGE,” with “MINOR DENT/SCRATCHES” shown as the primary damage classification. Stage 1’s photo review found no unambiguous minor dents or scratches, so that damage code is not supported by the visible exterior evidence. Stage 1 also noted that salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The documented visible damage is minor cosmetic creasing on the front seat cushion and side bolsters. No torn or missing upholstery is visible in the provided findings. The VIN decodes as a 2019 Audi Q5 quattro Premium Plus 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. NHTSA records list five recalls for this make, model, and year. These concern the gateway control module and possible liquid ingress, wheel-arch trim detachment, the passenger frontal airbag and instrument-panel carrier, rear wheel-arch trim retention, and a potentially undersized brake master-cylinder casting. Recall completion should be verified with Audi using the VIN before purchase. A physical inspection is also recommended, particularly given the auction’s salvage-title designation and the difference between the auction damage code and the visible findings.
