2017 DODGE CHARGER R/T

The vehicle is listed with a salvage certificate and an auction damage designation of “greater than 75% damage,” with “rear end” recorded as the primary damage. The visible evidence supports the reported rear-end damage: the rear bumper cover and corner trim are missing, exposing the rear body panel, bumper components, wiring, and exhaust outlets. The exposed rear body panel has a large crushed and buckled area across the center and right side. The trunk lid rear edge and spoiler area are uneven and buckled, with an irregular gap above the taillight panel. Light scuff and scratch marks are also visible on the left rear door and adjacent quarter panel. Stage 1 reports that the substantial rear damage is supported by the visible missing bumper cover and deformation of the rear body and trunk areas. However, Stage 1 also states that the auction’s claimed damage level of more than 75% cannot be confirmed from exterior photos alone. A physical inspection is recommended to assess the underlying structure, bumper reinforcement, wiring, exhaust system, trunk fit and operation, alignment, and any mechanical or safety-system damage. The VIN decodes as a 2017 Dodge Charger R/T sedan with rear-wheel drive, a 5.7-liter gasoline V8, five seats, and a 20-inch wheel configuration. It was manufactured by FCA Canada at the Brampton Assembly plant in Canada. An NHTSA recall, campaign 18V332000, applies to certain 2014–2018 Dodge Chargers and concerns a wiring defect that may prevent cruise control from disengaging. The recall remedy involves a software update; completion status for this vehicle is not provided, so it should be verified before use. Other listed recalls are limited to specific configurations, including all-wheel-drive vehicles or Hellcat engines. The decoded vehicle is rear-wheel drive with a 5.7-liter engine, so those configuration-specific recalls may not apply, but eligibility should be confirmed by VIN with an authorized dealer.
