2012 BMW X5 xDrive35i

This 2012 BMW X5 is listed by the auction with a “DIS/DLR/EXP ONLY SALVAGE TITLE” condition and “MINOR DENT/SCRATCHES” as the primary damage classification. These are auction designations and should not be treated as independently verified findings. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports minor scratches and a visible door dent to a limited extent, but the photos do not show disassembly or damage sufficient to confirm a dismantler/dealer/export-only salvage-title condition. The documented exterior damage includes pronounced hazing and yellow-white cloudiness on both the left and right front headlight lenses. Multiple light scratches and scuff marks are visible on the front bumper cover and lower front fascia. The left rear door has a shallow inward dent below the exterior handle, with distorted reflected contours. No other damage or mechanical findings were provided. Factory data identifies the vehicle as a BMW X5 xDrive35i, a gasoline-powered Sport Utility Vehicle with a 3.0-liter six-cylinder engine, approximately 300 horsepower, and all-wheel drive. The vehicle was manufactured in the United States. Transmission details were not provided by the decoder. The supplied NHTSA recall records include several passenger- and driver-side frontal air-bag inflator recalls affecting specified 2012 X5 variants, including the X5 xDrive35i, as well as a front driveshaft recall covering 2011–2013 X5 xDrive35i vehicles. A transmission recall applies to certain 2012 X5 xDrive35i vehicles manufactured from December 19 through December 21, 2011. Applicability may depend on production date, registration history, or prior replacement parts. Other supplied records concern diesel or V8 variants and may not apply to this vehicle. The current completion status should be confirmed with BMW or an authorized dealer using the VIN before purchase, particularly for the air-bag and driveshaft campaigns. A pre-purchase inspection should verify the salvage-title history, structural condition behind the bumper and door, headlight operation and replacement requirements, restraint-system status, driveline condition, and completion of all applicable recall repairs.
