2012 BMW X5 xDrive35d

This 2012 BMW X5 is listed with the auction’s primary-damage designation of “Front End.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this designation: the front bumper cover is missing, and the left front headlamp is visibly broken. The front bumper cover and lower bumper trim are absent, exposing the bumper reinforcement and internal front-end components across the lower front of the vehicle. The left front headlamp has an open housing with exposed internal components and is visibly broken and incomplete. These are severe collision-related findings. The provided findings do not establish the condition of any components behind or beneath the visible damage, so a complete inspection will be required before repair or road use. The VIN decode identifies the vehicle as a BMW X5 xDrive35d with all-wheel drive, a 3.0-litre six-cylinder diesel engine, and a stated output of 265 hp. It is classified as a sport utility vehicle and was manufactured in the United States. Several NHTSA recalls are listed for this model and configuration. They include recalls involving the passenger and driver frontal air-bag inflators, the engine idler-pulley bolt, the front driveshaft universal joint, and a potential power-steering fluid leak from the steering gear. Recall campaigns listed as applicable to the 2009–2013 X5 xDrive35d include 19V017000, 20V016000, 20V017000, 18V336000, 17V138000, and 12V267000. Recall completion should be confirmed with BMW or through an authorized dealer using the vehicle identification number before purchase and operation.
