2022 AUDI S6 quattro Prestige

The 2022 Audi S6 is listed with a salvage certificate of title, and the auction’s unverified primary-damage classification is FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim, with extensive damage to the hood, front bumper, grille, fender areas, and surrounding front fascia. The front end has severe collision damage across both sides. The bumper cover is cracked, torn, displaced, and separated from the body, with open gaps and exposed components. The grille and lower air-intake areas are broken, and detached or missing trim is visible below the vehicle. The hood has a large depression with multiple deep creases and substantial deformation along the front edge, resulting in wide, uneven gaps with the surrounding panels. Both front fender areas are creased and displaced around the leading edges and wheel arches. The areas surrounding both headlamps are broken or missing, although the visible right-front headlamp lens remains present. The condition and operation of the lamps, mounting points, cooling system, sensors, and other internal front-end components cannot be determined from the provided findings. The driver steering-wheel airbag is deployed. Airbag material is also extended along the front roof and windshield-header area, indicating deployment of an additional roof-mounted restraint. Required replacement of deployed restraints and inspection of the associated safety systems should be expected. The center-console armrest lid has peeling, scuffing, and loss of surface finish. Factory decoding identifies this vehicle as a German-built 2022 Audi S6 quattro Prestige sedan with all-wheel drive, a 2.9-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The decoded vehicle information lists a 444-horsepower engine and standard features including adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, park assist, and a rear visibility system. The condition or functionality of these systems is not established by the damage findings. Reported NHTSA recalls for this model and year include potential infotainment-unit failure that can disable the rearview-camera display, a gateway-control-module issue that may cause sudden power reduction after liquid enters the rear seat area, an inaccurate fuel-level reading caused by the fuel-level sender, and a software issue that may prevent the rearview-camera image from displaying properly. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with Audi or NHTSA before the vehicle is operated.
