2023 DODGE CHARGER R/T

This 2023 Dodge Charger R/T is listed with a salvage certificate, and the auction’s primary-damage designation is “VANDALISM.” However, the provided photo assessment states that the extensive missing and disassembled exterior and interior components do not visually establish vandalism as the cause; the claim cannot be confirmed from the images. The vehicle has severe damage at the front end. The front bumper cover, grille, hood, both headlamp assemblies, and front fender panels are missing, leaving the engine compartment and front structural areas exposed. The radiator-support and bumper-mounting sections show visible bending and irregular displacement on both front corners. The near-side front wheel and tire are also missing, with the brake rotor, caliper, and hub assembly exposed. The near-side rear wheel and tire are missing, leaving the hub and brake assembly exposed. The rear taillight assemblies show moderate damage, including broken or missing lens sections, openings, and separation from the body. Damage is visible at both sides of the rear lighting area. The interior is substantially disassembled. The instrument cluster and several dashboard trim and control components are missing, exposing wiring and internal mounting structures. The steering-wheel center cover/module is absent, with internal components and wiring visible. The front passenger-side door trim is missing, exposing door wiring and hardware. Rear door and other cabin trim components have also been removed or are absent. Loose panels, wiring, and other interior parts are present in the rear cabin, along with a wheel and tire. Based on the extent of missing components, exposed wiring, missing wheels, and deformation of front support structures, the vehicle requires a comprehensive physical inspection and substantial repair assessment before any road-use or repair-cost conclusions can be made. The provided findings do not confirm the condition of the engine, transmission, suspension, steering system, braking system beyond the exposed assemblies, electrical systems, restraint systems, or other components not visibly assessed. NHTSA VIN data identifies the vehicle as a left-hand-drive, rear-wheel-drive 2023 Dodge Charger R/T sedan built in Canada. It is equipped with a 5.7-liter gasoline V8 engine rated at 370 horsepower. The VIN data also lists standard ABS, electronic stability control, traction control, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assistance, and a rear-visibility system; the present condition means the operation of these systems has not been established. Two NHTSA safety recalls are listed for this vehicle model and year. Recall 24V112000 concerns possible improper parking-brake adjustment, which could allow the vehicle to roll away; the remedy is dealer inspection and adjustment free of charge. Recall 24V574000 concerns the left rear seat-back latch, which may not lock correctly; the remedy is dealer inspection and adjustment of the latch striker free of charge. Recall completion for this individual vehicle should be verified with an authorized Dodge/Chrysler dealer.
