2018 BMW X3 XDRIVE30I

The auction record designates this 2018 BMW X3 as salvage, with rear damage listed as the primary damage. The visible evidence supports the stated rear primary-damage claim; however, the salvage status cannot be independently confirmed from exterior photos. The rear liftgate is severely crushed and sharply deformed across the lower and center sections, including the license-plate mounting area. The rear bumper cover is missing, leaving the bumper reinforcement, mounting structures, lower components, and wiring exposed. Both outer rear corner lamp assemblies are absent, with open mounting cavities and visible connectors. Deformation is present around both rear quarter-panel and lamp-mounting areas, and loose brackets and wiring are hanging below the rear body. These findings indicate that substantial rear-end repair and replacement work will be required. The condition of hidden structural components, sensors, exhaust components, rear body structure, wiring, and mechanical systems cannot be determined from the provided findings and should be checked through a thorough physical inspection. The VIN decode identifies the vehicle as a BMW X3 Sport Utility Vehicle manufactured in the United States, with a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, an automatic eight-speed transmission, and AWD/all-wheel drive listed in the NHTSA data. The decoded trim is shown as sDrive30i, although the same data lists AWD, so the drivetrain and specification should be confirmed against the vehicle and VIN documentation. NHTSA recall records for 2018 BMW X3 vehicles include campaigns involving the Active Lane Keeping Assistant steering wheel, rear brake calipers, instrument-panel software and passenger-airbag casing, front seatback frames, rear turn-signal operation, backup-camera software, the front passenger occupant-classification system, rear-spoiler attachment, and rear cargo-rail attachment bolts. The cargo-rail issue appears in both recalls 24V534000 and 24V764000, with the later campaign applying to vehicles previously remedied under the earlier recall. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with BMW or an authorized dealer before the vehicle is returned to service.
