2018 BMW X3 sDrive30i

The auction record identifies the vehicle as Salvage, with “Right Side” listed as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the stated right-side damage claim, with substantial damage visible on the right rear side. However, Stage 1 also notes that the Salvage title status cannot be confirmed from photographs alone. The documented damage is concentrated on the right rear side. The right rear quarter panel is severely creased and deformed around and above the wheel arch, with extensive scuffing, an irregular wheel-arch edge, and exposed mounting points or fasteners. Part of the outer wheel-arch trim is missing. The right rear bumper cover or corner is severely detached, displaced, and hanging outward or downward, with exposed attachment areas and gaps. The right rear passenger door has a broad moderate-to-severe dent and crease across the lower and middle sections, along with multiple scrape marks and damaged lower-edge paint. The right lower rocker molding is separated and displaced near the rear door, with scuffing and exposed gaps. The available findings describe visible exterior damage only; they do not establish the condition of the underlying structure, suspension, wheel, tire, exhaust, electrical systems, or other mechanical components. A thorough physical inspection is recommended before purchase, including checks for hidden structural damage, alignment issues, damaged mounting points, water intrusion, and proper operation of all affected systems and safety equipment. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2018 BMW X3 sDrive30i SUV with all-wheel-drive information recorded by NHTSA, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and left-hand drive. The vehicle was manufactured in the United States. NHTSA records list multiple recalls applicable to 2018 BMW X3 models, including recalls involving the lane-keeping steering-assist system, rear brake calipers, the instrument panel, front seat frames, rear turn signals, the backup-camera display, the front passenger occupant-classification system, the instrument-cluster software, the rear spoiler attachment, and rear cargo-rail attachments. The two cargo-rail recalls include a later repair that may be required even if the vehicle was previously remedied under the earlier campaign. Recall completion should be verified by an authorized BMW dealer using the VIN before the vehicle is placed into service.
