2016 BMW X5 xDrive35i

The 2016 BMW X5 is listed with a salvage certificate of title, and the auction’s primary-damage classification is FRONT END. Stage 1 reported that the visible severe front-end damage supports the stated FRONT END claim; however, the salvage-title status cannot be verified from photographs. The hood has extensive folding, sharp creases, and deformation across the front and center sections. Both kidney-grille inserts are missing, leaving the radiator area exposed. The upper front radiator and grille support is severely bent, torn, and irregular, with radiator components visible behind it. Additional trim and support pieces around the grille and the right-front headlamp area are broken, displaced, or missing. The front fascia opening exposes the radiators, supports, wiring, and other components normally covered by the grille and front trim. The full condition of the underlying cooling, structural, electrical, and engine-bay components will require an in-person inspection. Inside, the driver’s seat has a minor abrasion and worn area on the outer lower bolster. According to the VIN decode, this is a BMW X5 xDrive35i SUV with all-wheel drive, a 3.0-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and a stated 300 hp. It was manufactured in Greer, South Carolina, USA. The supplied recall records include campaigns for certain diesel X5 xDrive35d vehicles and for the X5 xDrive40e, among other models; they do not establish applicability to this gasoline xDrive35i. Recall eligibility and completion should be verified directly with BMW using the VIN.
