2016 DODGE CHALLENGER SXT Plus

The auction record identifies the vehicle as having a certificate-of-title status and lists “SIDE” as the primary damage classification. According to the provided Stage 1 assessment, the title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The SIDE classification is only partially supported by visible side scratches and scuffing; no clear major side-impact deformation is visible. Visible damage is primarily cosmetic, with one bumper-trim issue requiring attention. The steering-wheel covering is torn and frayed along the lower-right rim, exposing the underlying material and stitching. Multiple light-colored scratches and broad scuff marks are present on the visible side door and rear quarter panel, with additional long scratches and irregular scuffing on the side door and adjacent lower body panel. The rear bumper cover has several horizontal scuffs and scratches across its center and left side. At the front, the lower bumper or air-dam trim is separated along the lower edge, leaving an open gap with part of the trim hanging downward. The lower front bumper corner and adjacent fascia also show abraded and scratched paint. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2016 Dodge Challenger SXT Plus coupe with rear-wheel drive, a 5.7-liter gasoline V8 engine, and left-hand drive. It was manufactured by FCA Canada Inc. at the Brampton Assembly plant in Canada. Two NHTSA recall records are provided. One concerns certain 2015–2018 Dodge Challenger vehicles and a potential condition in which cruise control may fail to disengage because of an electrical short; the listed remedy is a software update. A second recall concerns certain Mopar Stage 1 performance-package or Demon crate PCMs and addresses the same cruise-control issue. The applicability of the PCM-specific recall and the completion status of all applicable recall repairs should be confirmed with a Dodge dealer using the VIN. Until the relevant software update has been verified, cruise control should not be used.
