2019 AUDI Q7

The vehicle is a 2019 Audi Q7 with an auction-listed salvage certificate/title designation and “FRONT END” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end damage supports the “FRONT END” classification; however, the salvage certificate or title status cannot be confirmed from the photos. The front bumper is severely damaged on the vehicle-left corner, with the bumper cover torn and partially missing. Broken plastic and internal components are exposed. The center grille also has multiple broken or missing sections, including an open central area and displaced lower grille pieces. The vehicle-left headlamp has moderate damage, with broken or missing outer and surrounding sections. Moderate deformation is visible along the front edge and vehicle-left side of the hood, as well as around the vehicle-left front fender near the headlamp and wheel arch. The front bumper also has surface scuffs and abrasion marks. The windshield contains multiple visible cracks and impact-type fracture lines. The driver airbag is deployed from the steering wheel. The passenger-side dashboard airbag and additional curtain-airbag fabric along the roof-side area are also visibly deployed. Proper inspection and replacement of the affected restraint-system components will be required before the vehicle can be considered safe for road use. The visible damage findings do not establish the condition of hidden structural, suspension, steering, cooling, electrical, or mechanical components. According to the VIN decoding, this is an all-wheel-drive SUV equipped with a 3.0-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine and automatic transmission. It was manufactured by Audi AG in Slovakia and is configured as a seven-seat vehicle. NHTSA records list four safety recalls for this model year: a front shock absorber fork cracking issue, a C-pillar padding issue, a steering-shaft bolt issue, and a side-curtain airbag inflation issue. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with an Audi dealer, particularly given the collision and deployed-airbag damage.
