2019 AUDI Q8 55 PREMIUM

The 2019 Audi Q8 is listed by the auction with a Salvage condition and Front End as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible severe front-end collision damage supports the stated Front End claim; however, the Salvage title status cannot be verified from exterior photographs alone. The front end shows extensive severe collision damage. The hood is crushed and heavily folded across the center and image-right side, with deep creases and a torn lower edge near the image-right headlamp. The front bumper cover is cracked, torn, partially detached, and separated from the vehicle, with sections hanging outward and another piece lying on the ground. Several bumper and trim components are missing, exposing internal areas and components. The lower front fascia is also broken and displaced. The image-right headlamp has broken and displaced lens and housing sections, with internal components exposed. The image-right front fender is crushed around the wheel arch, with sharply folded sheet metal and exposed fastener holes. The image-left wheel-arch trim and adjacent front-corner covering are missing. A visible front reinforcement member behind the grille is crushed and bent. The driver airbag is deployed from the steering wheel, with an additional deployed fabric component visible below the steering column. Curtain airbags are also deployed along the visible roofline and side-window areas of the passenger compartment. These findings indicate that substantial restraint-system inspection and replacement may be required, in addition to body, lighting, bumper, reinforcement, and possible underlying structural repairs. The provided findings do not establish the condition of the engine, transmission, suspension, steering, cooling system, electrical systems, or drivetrain. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2019 Audi Q8 quattro Premium Plus SUV with all-wheel drive, a 3.0-litre six-cylinder gasoline engine, and an automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Audi AG in Slovakia. NHTSA records list recalls concerning the steering-shaft bolt, front shock-absorber forks, the fuel pump, the rearview-camera software, and—on vehicles previously repaired under the rearview-camera recall—the lane-departure warning software. Recall completion and applicability should be confirmed with Audi or an authorized dealer using the VIN before purchase.
