2019 BMW X1 xDrive28i

This 2019 BMW X1 is listed with a salvage certificate and a “FRONT END” primary-damage classification. The available Stage 1 assessment states that the visible evidence strongly supports the stated front-end damage claim; however, the salvage-certificate status cannot be confirmed from exterior and interior photographs. The front end has extensive severe collision damage. The hood is deeply creased and buckled across the front and central sections, with its leading edge folded downward. The front bumper cover and grille assemblies are missing or broken away, leaving internal components exposed. The lower front fascia and air-intake areas also have broken or missing sections. Both front headlamp areas are damaged. The left headlamp has broken outer components with exposed and displaced internal parts, while the right headlamp lens and surrounding assembly are cracked and displaced. The adjacent front fender edge is creased and irregular around the hood and headlamp junction. A prominent front crossbar or support component is visibly bowed and displaced. Other components in the radiator, cooling, and front-support area are exposed and visibly broken or out of position. The extent of the visible damage indicates that the vehicle requires a comprehensive inspection of the front structure, cooling system, lighting systems, steering and suspension components, wiring, and safety systems before repair or road use. The images do not establish the condition of components that are not visible. According to the VIN decode, this is a BMW X1 xDrive28i sport utility vehicle with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a reported 228 horsepower. It was manufactured by BMW AG in Regensburg, Germany. Three NHTSA recalls are listed for this model and year: recall 19V601000 concerns possible incorrect assembly and wear of the steering-gear tie rods, which could result in tie-rod failure and loss of vehicle control; recall 19V074000 concerns taillight attachment brackets that may crack and allow a taillight to loosen or detach; and recall 19V349000 concerns insufficient impact absorption by the B-pillar trim in certain crashes. Recall completion should be verified with BMW using the vehicle identification number before purchase.
