2018 BMW X5 xDrive35i

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a salvage title and identifies “SIDE” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible left-side door and rocker-panel damage supports the stated SIDE classification; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The left rear door outer panel has severe damage, including a large inward deformation and multiple sharp diagonal creases extending from the window area toward the lower door edge. Light-colored surface marks are visible on the deformed panel. The exterior rocker-panel trim is missing along the lower left side between the front and rear wheels, leaving light-colored material exposed and an uneven lower edge. According to the VIN decoding, this is a 2018 BMW X5 xDrive35i SUV with all-wheel drive, a 3.0-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured in the United States. NHTSA recall records include campaigns applicable to certain 2018 BMW X5 xDrive35i vehicles. These include a recall concerning a potentially improperly hardened pivot bolt in the front lower-left control arm and another concerning improperly tightened front-suspension wishbone bolts. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with BMW or an authorized dealer. The available records also contain recalls for other X5 variants and equipment configurations that may not apply to this vehicle.
