2022 AUDI Q5 quattro Premium

This 2022 Audi Q5 is listed with a salvage permit and a REAR END primary-damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this classification, with extensive damage and missing components concentrated at the rear, particularly the left rear corner. The rear bumper cover is missing across the lower rear, exposing the bumper reinforcement, mounting hardware, brackets, and other lower rear components. The left rear corner, quarter panel, and bumper area show severe crushing, tearing, displacement, and missing material. The lower-left tailgate panel has a large dent, creasing, and paint scuffing. The left rear wheel-arch trim is also missing, leaving mounting holes and inner components exposed. Detached rear bumper parts, including broken painted plastic, mesh, trim, and mounting components, are shown separately. The VIN decodes this vehicle as a 2022 Audi Q5 SUV with all-wheel drive, a gasoline 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder 40 TFSI engine, and an automatic transmission. It is listed as the quattro Premium trim and was manufactured in Mexico. Several NHTSA recalls are listed for the 2022 Audi Q5 range. Recall 25V294 concerns potentially loose cylinder-head-cover screws on certain Q5 Quattro vehicles, which may allow an oil leak and increase fire risk; the remedy is inspection and replacement as necessary. Recall 23V842 concerns overheating of certain 220V/240V compact charging cables. The VIN decode identifies this vehicle as gasoline-powered rather than a plug-in hybrid, so charging-related applicability should be confirmed with Audi. Recalls 24V898 and 25V080 concern high-voltage batteries in Q5 plug-in hybrid vehicles and do not correspond to the gasoline powertrain shown in the VIN data. Recall completion and VIN-specific applicability should be verified with an Audi dealer. The visible damage is severe and primarily affects the rear bodywork, bumper assembly, and adjacent structural and mounting components. A thorough in-person inspection is recommended to assess concealed structural, electrical, sensor, lighting, tailgate, suspension, and exhaust-system damage, as well as the quality and completeness of any repairs.
