2026 HYUNDAI ELANTRA

The auction record identifies this 2026 Hyundai Elantra as having a salvage certificate, with “UNDERCARRIAGE” listed as the primary damage. However, the stated undercarriage damage cannot be confirmed from the available photos; no undercarriage damage is directly visible, and physical inspection is required. The visible damage is limited to minor issues. A shallow vertical crease and localized surface distortion are present on the central-to-lower section of the left front door. Light-colored scuffing and paint-transfer marks are visible across the lower black rear bumper fascia, with a more concentrated mark toward the right side. The VIN decodes as a Hyundai Elantra sedan manufactured by Hyundai Motor Co. in South Korea, equipped with a 2.0-liter gasoline MPI NU PE engine. The available factory data lists standard ABS, electronic stability and traction control, front and curtain airbags, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and other driver-assistance features. A NHTSA recall record is listed for certain 2026 Elantra vehicles under campaign 26V254000. The recall concerns potentially misassembled B-pillar side-impact sensors, which could delay airbag deployment. The remedy is dealer inspection and replacement of the affected sensor(s), if necessary, free of charge. Recall applicability and completion should be confirmed by VIN with Hyundai or NHTSA before purchase.
