2016 BMW X1 XDRIVE28I

The auction record lists the vehicle as salvage with “Left Rear” as the primary damage. However, Stage 1 reports that the photos show substantial damage concentrated at the right rear exterior rather than the stated left rear area, and that the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photos. The documented damage is severe around the right rear quarter. The outer quarter-panel section around the right rear wheel arch is missing, exposing inner wheel-arch components and wiring. The right rear bumper cover is displaced outward and downward, with exposed mounting areas and white scuffing. The lower right rocker molding and right rear wheel-arch trim are also missing, leaving mounting points and inner surfaces exposed. The right front door has moderate deformation and several light-colored scrape marks on its lower-middle section. A rear lamp assembly is detached and shown on the ground with other removed exterior components. The findings are based on the provided images and do not establish the condition of hidden structural, suspension, electrical, or mechanical components. A comprehensive physical inspection is recommended before purchase, including inspection of the exposed wiring and right rear wheel-arch area. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2016 BMW X1 xDrive28i, classified as an SUV/MPV. It is equipped with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine rated at 228 hp, and was manufactured by BMW AG in Germany. NHTSA recall records provided for the 2016 BMW X1 include campaign 16V747000 concerning the driver’s seat-belt emergency locking retractor, which may not lock as designed; campaign 19V349000 concerning inadequate impact absorption by the interior B-pillar trim; and campaign 15V887000 concerning a potentially incorrectly manufactured steering gearbox.
