2018 MERCEDES-BENZ C 300 C300

The auction record lists the vehicle as Salvage with Left Front as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible collision damage is concentrated at the left front, with additional damage to the left rear quarter panel, supporting the stated primary-damage location. The Salvage title status itself cannot be verified from photographs. The left-front area has severe collision damage. The hood is raised and heavily creased over the left-front section, with an uneven leading edge and a large gap above the grille. The left front fender is crushed around the headlamp and wheel-opening area, and inner components are exposed at the front corner. The left-front bumper cover is missing, while sections of the lower fascia and grille area are broken or absent, leaving open cavities and exposed mounting brackets. The Mercedes-Benz grille emblem is detached and hanging below the grille. Broad white and gray scrape marks are also visible across the front grille, bumper-center area, and adjacent red-painted surfaces. At the rear, the left quarter panel has a large inward dent with multiple sharp creases extending around the wheel arch and toward the rear door area. The findings do not establish the condition of the underlying structure, suspension, steering, cooling system, lighting, airbag system, or other mechanical and safety components. These areas should be physically inspected before purchase, particularly because internal components are exposed at the damaged front corner. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2018 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C300 sedan, built in the United States. It is equipped with a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder gasoline M274 engine, turbocharging, and a seven-speed automatic transmission. Drive type was not provided by the decoder. The supplied NHTSA recall data includes campaigns affecting certain 2018 C300 and related C-Class vehicles. Reported recall areas include emergency-call communication software, front seat-belt retraction, passenger airbag-status display, headlight adjustment, battery mounting and electrical protection, steering components, and—depending on body style or equipment—seatback locks, roof-panel bonding, rear-window bonding, and other body-related items. Recall applicability and completion status should be confirmed with a Mercedes-Benz dealer using the VIN before the vehicle is operated or repaired.
