2013 BMW X5 xDrive35d

The auction record designates this vehicle as having a Salvage Certificate of Title, with FRONT END listed as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end damage supports the FRONT END damage code; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The reported damage is concentrated at the front-left corner. The front-left headlamp assembly is missing, leaving the internal mounting and surrounding components exposed. The front-left bumper cover is severely broken, with a large section missing, torn edges, exposed mounting areas, and visible deformation. The front-left fender has a large deformed and open section around the headlamp and wheel arch, with missing outer-panel material and exposed inner components. The front-left edge of the hood also has a pronounced crease and uneven alignment next to the damaged fender. The VIN decodes as a 2013 BMW X5 xDrive35d, an all-wheel-drive SUV with a 3.0-liter six-cylinder diesel engine. The vehicle was manufactured by BMW in the United States. NHTSA records list several recalls applicable to this model and configuration, including recalls involving the passenger and driver frontal air-bag inflators, the engine idler-pulley bolt, the front driveshaft universal joint, and the steering gear. The air-bag recalls may involve a risk of inflator rupture and serious injury; the other recalls concern possible loss of power-assisted steering, reduced front-wheel traction, or a power-steering-fluid leak that could increase fire risk. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with BMW or an authorized dealer before purchase or operation.
