2018 BMW X5 xDrive35i

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a salvage title, with “SIDE” recorded as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that visible side damage supports the auction’s unverified SIDE classification. However, the salvage-title condition cannot be confirmed or contradicted from the exterior photos alone. The documented damage is concentrated on the visible side doors. The front door has a large irregular dent, multiple sharp creases, and a broad depressed area across the middle and lower sections. Light-colored scuffing or surface discoloration is also visible over the damaged area. The rear door has several pronounced dents and creases, including damage below and behind the door handle. The findings provided do not assess the vehicle’s mechanical systems, structural condition, airbags, interior, underside, or the operation of the doors and windows. A thorough physical inspection and repair estimate are recommended. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2018 BMW X5 xDrive35i SUV with all-wheel drive, a 3.0-liter gasoline six-cylinder engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured in Greer, South Carolina, USA. The supplied NHTSA recall records include recalls relevant to certain 2018 BMW X5 vehicles, including a front suspension control-arm pivot bolt recall that specifically lists the X5 xDrive35i, and a separate recall concerning front suspension wishbone bolts on certain 2018 X5 vehicles. The records also include recalls for other BMW models or powertrains that do not appear to match this gasoline xDrive35i configuration. Recall completion should be verified with BMW using the VIN before purchase.
