2024 DODGE HORNET R/T PLUS EAWD

The 2024 Dodge Hornet is listed with a certificate of salvage and an auction primary-damage classification of “rear end.” Stage 1 reported that the visible damage is concentrated on the right rear quarter panel and wheel-arch area, supporting a rear-end or rear-corner classification. The available photos did not show visible deformation of the rear bumper or liftgate. The right rear quarter panel has severe inward deformation and extensive creasing around the fuel-filler door, rear-door edge, wheel arch, and lower rocker-panel junction. The fuel-filler door remains present within the damaged panel. The black right rear wheel-arch trim is displaced from its normal position, with part of it hanging downward beside or behind the tire. Based on the VIN decode, this is a left-hand-drive R/T Plus Sport Utility Vehicle with all-wheel drive and plug-in hybrid operation. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.3-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine rated at 285 horsepower, with electric and gasoline fuel systems. It was manufactured by FCA Italy in Pomigliano, Italy. NHTSA records show six recalls associated with this 2024 Dodge Hornet, covering propulsion-system cable connections, the rear pedestrian-alert siren, tire-capacity and tire-size labeling, the brake pedal arm, and the rearview-camera display. The listed remedies include inspection or tightening, connector or siren replacement, corrected labels, brake-pedal reinforcement, and software updates or display replacement as applicable. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with an authorized Dodge dealer before purchase. A thorough inspection should also confirm the condition of the quarter-panel structure, wheel-arch area, fuel-filler components, wheel and tire, suspension, and any wiring or safety systems affected by the impact.
