2021 DODGE DURANGO GT AWD

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a salvage title with “FRONT END” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible extensive hood, bumper, grille, fender, lighting, and exposed front-end component damage supports the front-end damage claim. The salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs alone. The 2021 Dodge Durango has severe collision damage across the front end. The hood, both front fenders, wheel-opening areas, front corner panels, and lower front assembly are crushed, folded, torn, or displaced. The front bumper and fascia are absent or broken away, the center grille is missing, and internal components are exposed. One front lighting area has an open cavity, while the remaining visible headlamp area has broken or displaced surrounding panels and mounts. The radiator, condenser, related supports, and other cooling components are exposed and visibly deformed. Multiple plastic and metal parts are broken, displaced, or hanging from the lower front end. Both front doors also have moderate outer-panel damage. The passenger-side door has a large irregular dent with multiple creases, while the driver-side door has a broad dent with horizontal and vertical creasing. The restraint system has extensive visible deployment. The driver steering-wheel airbag and front passenger dashboard airbag are deployed, as are side airbags and side-curtain airbags in the front and rear passenger-compartment areas. Airbag modules, inflators, seatbelt pretensioners, roof trim, wiring, and associated structural mounting areas should be professionally inspected and assessed for replacement. Factory data identifies this vehicle as a 2021 Dodge Durango GT SUV with all-wheel drive, a 3.6-liter gasoline six-cylinder engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. It is listed as a seven-seat vehicle manufactured by FCA US LLC at the Jefferson North Assembly plant in the United States. The decoded data does not establish the operating condition of the engine, transmission, cooling system, steering, suspension, or drivetrain. NHTSA records show recalls for this model and year involving the rear spoiler alignment, side-curtain-airbag fasteners, ABS/ESC software, the steering rack, the 3.6-liter engine EGR valve, and rearview-camera software. The applicable recall campaigns include 21V842000, 21V280000, 22V140000, 22V154000, 22V284000, 23V115000, and 24V436000. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with an authorized Dodge dealer before purchase or road use. Because the front structure, cooling area, lighting, restraint systems, and multiple body panels are visibly damaged, the vehicle requires a comprehensive structural, mechanical, electrical, and safety-system inspection before repair or operation.
