2015 AUDI S4 Premium Plus

The auction record lists the vehicle as “CERT OF SALVAGE >75% DAMAGE” with “FRONT END” as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the front-end damage classification, but the photographs do not establish the auction’s stated damage-percentage threshold. The vehicle has severe collision damage concentrated at one front corner. The bumper cover is broken and partially missing, with internal components exposed. The adjacent fender and hood are heavily creased and displaced, and there are irregular gaps around the headlamp and grille. The headlamp lens and housing are cracked and damaged, with sections displaced or missing. The grille and surrounding trim are also visibly misaligned, while the lower front fascia has broken and separated sections. The driver airbag is deployed, along with the driver-side curtain airbag and a rear curtain airbag. These findings indicate that the restraint system will require detailed inspection and likely replacement of deployed components, together with diagnostic checks of the airbag control system and related safety equipment. Additional exterior damage includes light scuffing on the side doors and lower side panels, as well as scratches on the rear door and adjacent rear quarter panel. The visible leather upholstery on the front passenger and rear seats has cracking, peeling, and torn areas. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2015 Audi S4 sedan with all-wheel drive, a 2.995-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and a manual transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Audi AG in Germany and is identified as a Premium Plus trim. NHTSA lists safety recall campaign 14V667000 for certain 2013–2015 Audi A4 and S4 vehicles. The recall concerns airbag-control-module software that could prevent the front airbags from deploying after a secondary front impact when the side airbags have deployed. The recall remedy was a free software update through Audi dealers. Recall completion for this vehicle should be verified by VIN and service records before purchase or operation.
