2016 AUDI Q5 quattro Premium Plus

The vehicle is a 2016 Audi Q5 with a salvage title designation. The auction lists “REAR END” as the primary damage, an unverified auction classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible rear deformation and missing glass support this claim, while also noting additional visible damage at the front bumper. The rear liftgate window glass is missing, with glass or adhesive remnants around the opening and the interior exposed. The liftgate panel is creased and deformed across the upper and side areas near both rear tail lamps. The rear bumper cover has scuffing, chipped material, open gaps, and separated sections along its upper and lower portions. At the front, a lower bumper insert or grille section is missing, leaving an open cavity with components visible behind it. The lower front bumper edge also has an uneven gap and separated or broken plastic along one corner. A VIN decode identifies the vehicle as a Germany-built Audi Q5 SUV with all-wheel drive, a gasoline 2.0T four-cylinder engine, and an automatic transmission. The recorded trim is quattro Premium Plus. NHTSA records show five recalls applicable to this make, model, and year. They concern auxiliary-heater wiring that may overheat, the electric coolant pump, the sunroof drainage system and side-curtain-airbag inflator, and the fuel-pump flange, with potential fire or occupant-injury risks depending on the issue. The provided information does not confirm whether any of these recall repairs have been completed; this should be verified with Audi using the VIN before purchase. A thorough inspection is recommended, including the rear body structure, liftgate, tail-lamp mounting areas, bumper reinforcements, front bumper mounting points, glass installation, interior for possible exposure damage, and all safety and mechanical systems.
