2025 MERCEDES-BENZ G 550 4MATIC

The auction lists the primary damage as rollover. This is an unverified auction classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible roof deformation, extensive windshield breakage, deployed curtain airbags, and detached exterior parts are consistent with the reported rollover damage, although the photos alone cannot establish rollover as the cause. The side body panels appear largely intact, so the full extent of the reported damage is not confirmed. The most significant visible damage is concentrated around the roof and windshield. The roof panel and roof edges have severe folding, creasing, and deformation, with an uneven roof line and displaced or separated trim along the front, left, and right sides. The windshield is extensively shattered, with widespread fractures and dense broken-glass areas, particularly on the passenger-side and lower-right sections. Multiple airbags are deployed inside the cabin, including curtain airbags extending along the roof line and side-window areas, as well as inflated airbags near the front and windshield-side areas. A red airbag warning indicator is illuminated in the instrument cluster. The restraint system will require comprehensive diagnostic testing and likely replacement of deployed components before the vehicle can be considered safe for operation. Additional exterior damage includes a broken or missing right side mirror with exposed internal components and wiring, missing sections of the right-front wheel-arch cladding, detached wheel-arch and bumper trim, and white scrape marks on the lower-right front bumper corner. Light-colored abrasions are also visible on the right rear quarter panel below the rear side window. Based on the VIN decode, this is a 2025 Mercedes-Benz G 550 SUV with a 3.0-liter turbocharged gasoline inline-six engine rated at 443 horsepower, paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. It was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz AG in Austria. Factory safety equipment includes front, side, and curtain airbag systems, seat-belt pretensioners, electronic stability control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure and lane-keeping systems, blind-spot monitoring, and related driver-assistance features. One NHTSA safety recall is listed for this model: campaign 25V254000 concerns the electronic stability control/ESP control-unit software. Under certain failure conditions, the vehicle may display an incorrect warning light and fail to provide proper critical safety information. Mercedes-Benz is to update the ESP control-unit software free of charge. Recall completion should be verified with Mercedes-Benz before purchase or use. The vehicle requires a detailed inspection of the roof structure, roof-edge components, windshield frame, body alignment, airbags and seat-belt systems, wiring, electronic control modules, suspension and underbody components, and overall safety-system operation. The vehicle should not be driven until the structural and restraint-system damage has been professionally assessed and repaired.
