2017 BMW 540I xDrive

The auction lists the vehicle as Salvage with “Left Side” recorded as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the Left Side damage claim: the left rear exterior door handle is missing, the surrounding door panel is visibly deformed, and scratches are present on the left front door. Stage 1 also notes that the Salvage title status cannot be independently confirmed from the photographs. The left rear door has moderate collision-related damage. Its exterior handle is missing, leaving the handle recess open with internal mounting components exposed, and the surrounding door skin has irregular deformation and creasing. The left front door has several light, irregular surface scratches below and behind the mirror, as well as additional light scratches across the upper-middle area. No other damage findings were provided. Factory VIN data identifies this vehicle as a 2017 BMW 540i xDrive sedan with all-wheel drive, a 3.0-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by BMW AG in Germany. One NHTSA safety recall is listed for this model and year: recall 20V243000 concerns the driver and passenger head-air-bag inflators, which may have been exposed to excessive humidity. In a sufficiently severe crash, deployment may be impaired or the igniter could separate from the inflator, increasing the risk of injury. BMW’s stated remedy is free replacement of the affected head air bag by an authorized dealer. Recall completion should be verified with BMW using the vehicle identification number.
