2024 BMW I4 eDrive35

The vehicle is a 2024 BMW i4 eDrive35, a battery-electric four-door sedan manufactured by BMW AG in Germany. The auction record identifies it as having a salvage certificate of title with FRONT END listed as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end collision damage supports the stated FRONT END claim; however, the salvage certificate status itself could not be independently verified from the photos. The front end has substantial visible damage. The hood, particularly on the left side and along the leading edge, is creased and unevenly raised. The front bumper cover has severe deformation, crushed and torn sections, scuffing, and an irregular lower edge. Additional damage is visible around the left front bumper corner and lower fascia, including displaced or torn plastic. The left headlamp assembly has damage to its lens and internal components, with broken and irregular sections. Inside the cabin, the driver and front passenger airbags are deployed, and a curtain airbag is hanging from the front side roof area. The windshield has multiple cracks and radiating lines, concentrated on the driver-side portion. The instrument cluster and center display visibly show a “Drivetrain malfunction” warning and request roadside assistance. The underlying cause cannot be determined from the available findings, so the electric drivetrain and related systems require diagnostic assessment before the vehicle is considered operational. Given the collision and the vehicle’s battery-electric configuration, the high-voltage system and surrounding components should also be professionally inspected as part of the repair evaluation. The supplied recall records include campaign 25V395000, covering certain 2022–2025 BMW i4 vehicles. This recall concerns electric drive motor software that may shut down the high-voltage system and cause loss of drive power; the remedy is a free over-the-air or dealer software update. Two additional records, campaigns 24V135000 and 24V611000, concern specified i4 trims including the xDrive40, eDrive40, and M50, rather than the decoded eDrive35 trim. Recall applicability and completion should be confirmed directly by VIN with BMW before purchase.
