2024 BMW X1 xDrive28i

The 2024 BMW X1 is listed with a salvage certificate of title. The auction identifies the primary damage as “FRONT END.” However, the provided photo assessment states that substantial exterior front-end deformation is not visible; the photos show deployed airbags and localized separation at the front bumper and wheel-arch area, so the FRONT END classification is not strongly supported by the visible exterior evidence. The most significant visible issue is severe restraint-system deployment in the front cabin. The steering-wheel airbag, front passenger dashboard airbag, and curtain/side airbags are deployed. The passenger-side portion of the windshield has a dense fractured or shattered area. At the front wheel arch, there is a visible gap and separation where the bumper meets the fender, with an exposed fastener or inner edge. The instrument display shows the warning, “Call Roadside Assist: Drivetrain malfunction.” This confirms that a drivetrain malfunction warning was displayed, but the underlying cause cannot be determined from the available findings. According to the VIN decode, this is a Germany-built BMW X1 xDrive28i with all-wheel drive, a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a reported output of 241 horsepower. The VIN is WBX73EF0XR5Z08274. NHTSA records list recalls affecting this vehicle model and year. Recall 24V104000 concerns a possible integrated-brake-system malfunction that may reduce power-brake assist or disable ABS and Dynamic Stability Control. Recall 24V697000 concerns welds in the integrated brake control module that may break, potentially causing loss of power-brake assist, rear-brake function, ABS, and DSC. Recall 26V422000 also concerns the integrated brake system; inspection and, if necessary, replacement are to be provided free of charge, with owner notifications expected on August 21, 2026. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with BMW or NHTSA before the vehicle is operated. The deployed airbags, damaged windshield, body-panel separation, drivetrain warning, salvage status, and applicable brake-system recalls make a complete physical inspection and diagnostic evaluation essential before purchase or road use.
