2014 BMW 550I

The auction lists the vehicle’s condition as “Clear,” with the primary-damage code recorded as “Unknown.” Stage 1 reported that the exterior photos show no clear collision damage; however, the instrument cluster displays an “Adaptive headlight malfunction” warning. Accordingly, the “Clear” condition is not fully supported as a damage-free condition, and the primary damage cannot be resolved from the available photos. The identified issue is an orange adaptive-headlight malfunction message in the instrument cluster. This is a moderate warning-related finding and should be investigated with diagnostic testing. The condition of the headlight assemblies, control modules, wiring, sensors, and related systems should be verified before purchase. The VIN decodes as a 2014 BMW 550i sedan manufactured by BMW AG in Dingolfing, Germany. It is equipped with a 4.4-liter gasoline V8 engine and is listed with an engine output of 448 hp. Two NHTSA recalls are listed for this vehicle: campaign 15V188000 concerning rear reflex reflectors that may not meet reflectivity requirements, and campaign 24V527000 concerning the driver’s frontal air-bag inflator. Recall completion should be confirmed with BMW or an authorized dealer before purchase.
