2021 AUDI S4 quattro Premium Plus

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a PUBLIC – SALVAGE TITLE and identifies FRONT END as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible severe damage at the front-left corner supports the listed FRONT END damage code; however, the PUBLIC – SALVAGE TITLE status cannot be verified from photographs. The most significant visible damage is concentrated at the front-left corner. The front-left fender is extensively crushed and sharply deformed, with components exposed behind it. The front-left door has a large inward deformation with multiple sharp creases, and the exterior mirror assembly is missing. The hood is deformed at its front-left edge, with an uneven gap beside the damaged fender. The front-left headlamp is displaced and visibly broken, with surrounding sections missing or damaged and internal areas exposed. The front bumper cover is torn and displaced at the same corner, with missing sections, open gaps, and exposed components. Additional broken and displaced plastic parts are visible in the lower front-end area. A large creased dent is present on the right rear quarter panel between the rear lamp and wheel opening. Inside the vehicle, the driver steering-wheel airbag, driver knee airbag, and curtain airbags along the roof-side areas above the rear passenger compartment are visibly deployed. The supplied findings do not establish the condition of the vehicle’s underlying structure, suspension, steering, cooling system, electrical systems, or mechanical components. These areas, together with the airbag and restraint systems, should be thoroughly inspected before purchase and repair estimates are prepared. Four NHTSA safety recalls are listed for the 2021 Audi S4. Recall 21V606000 concerns the rear-seat automatic locking retractors, which may deactivate early and prevent a child restraint from securing properly; the middle-rear seat belt assemblies are to be inspected and replaced as necessary. Recall 21V295000 concerns possible breakage of a rear-axle trailing-arm lock nut, which could misalign the rear axle and increase the risk of loss of control; the lock nuts and associated bolts, if necessary, are to be replaced. Recall 22V034000 concerns rear-axle alignment inspection following the earlier repair, with adjustment and tire replacement as necessary. Recall 22V742000 concerns a software issue that may cause the rearview-camera display to show a blank or black screen; the remedy is an infotainment software update. Recall completion should be confirmed by VIN with an Audi dealer.
