2016 DODGE CHARGER R/T

The auction records list the vehicle as having a salvage title and identify the primary damage as FRONT END. The visible evidence supports the FRONT END classification, with severe damage affecting the front bumper, left front fender, headlamp area, hood, and front cooling-support area. The salvage-title status itself cannot be verified from exterior photographs. This 2016 Dodge Charger is decoded as an R/T sedan with rear-wheel drive, a 5.7-liter gasoline V8 engine rated at 370 horsepower, and left-hand drive. The vehicle was manufactured by FCA Canada at the Brampton Assembly plant in Canada. The left front corner is extensively crushed. The left front fender and wheel-opening area are torn, folded, and displaced, with damaged inner structure and exposed internal components. The front bumper cover, grille surround, and lower air dam are cracked, broken, and partly detached, particularly on the left side. The left headlamp assembly is missing. The radiator and related cooling components are exposed behind the damaged fascia, and the radiator-support area contains broken and displaced plastic and mounting pieces. The hood has a raised, uneven leading edge with visible deformation and an enlarged gap above the front fascia. The front edge and hinge-side area of the left front door are adjacent to displaced and torn metal. Multiple airbags are visibly deployed, including the steering-wheel, passenger-dashboard, and lower driver-side dashboard airbags. The windshield has extensive branching cracks across the left and central portions. The instrument cluster shows tire-pressure, ABS, traction-control, and other warning indicators illuminated, along with a low-fuel message. Large interior trim panels and broken or detached components are lying across the rear passenger compartment. The left side of the rear bumper also has light-to-moderate scuffing. The recorded damage is substantial and extends beyond cosmetic bodywork. Repairs may require replacement of major front-end panels and lighting, inspection and possible repair of the cooling system and front structure, windshield replacement, airbag and restraint-system replacement, interior-trim restoration, and electronic diagnostic testing. The photographs do not establish the condition of the engine, transmission, suspension, steering, drivetrain, or the full extent of hidden structural or mechanical damage. A complete physical inspection is recommended before purchase. NHTSA recall records include campaigns concerning cruise-control disengagement for certain 2014–2018 Charger vehicles, including a software update to the engine or powertrain control module. Additional records concern front driveshaft components on certain AWD V8 or pursuit vehicles, an axle/driveshaft-bolt issue on certain AWD Chargers, a supplied tire-jack and body-side-sill hazard on certain 2011–2016 Chargers, and an equipment recall involving specified Kidde fire extinguishers. Applicability depends on the vehicle’s exact configuration and equipment; recall completion should be confirmed by VIN with Dodge or an authorized dealer before the vehicle is operated.
