2018 BMW X5 sDrive35i

The auction record identifies this vehicle as having “REAR END” primary damage and a salvage certificate of title. The supplied photo-based assessment reports that the visible rear-end damage supports the unverified auction damage classification; however, a salvage certificate of title cannot be confirmed from photographs. The rear bumper cover and lower fascia are missing, exposing the inner bumper structure, mounting points, wiring, and exhaust heat shielding. Bumper corner pieces and lower trim are also absent on both sides, leaving open gaps and exposed mounting areas. The lower liftgate is visibly deformed around and below the license-plate recess. Both rear corner panels adjacent to the taillamps have irregular edges, exposed inner material, and gaps where exterior components are missing. The wheel-arch moldings are missing on both rear sides, with fastener holes exposed around the wheel openings. The center display shows a red “Driver restraint system” warning and instructs the driver to continue safely and contact service. The restraint-system warning should be diagnosed before the vehicle is considered roadworthy. A thorough inspection is also required to assess concealed structural, wiring, exhaust, parking-sensor, liftgate, and restraint-system damage that is not established by these findings. The VIN decodes as a 2018 BMW X5 sDrive35i Sport Utility Vehicle with rear-wheel drive, a 3.0-liter gasoline six-cylinder engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured in the United States and is listed with five seats, two seat rows, and 19-inch wheels. The supplied NHTSA recall records include campaign 17V727000 concerning front-suspension wishbone bolts on certain 2018 X5 vehicles; recall completion should be verified by VIN. Campaign 18V439000 is listed for certain X5 xDrive35i vehicles and may not match this vehicle’s decoded sDrive35i configuration. The other supplied records concern specific plug-in hybrid or diesel variants and do not correspond to the decoded gasoline sDrive35i configuration. Recall status and any outstanding remedy should be confirmed with BMW or an authorized dealer.
