2022 HYUNDAI ELANTRA N Line

This 2022 Hyundai Elantra N Line is listed with a SALVAGE TITLE CERTIFICATE and FRONT END as the auction’s primary-damage designation. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the FRONT END code through extensive damage and missing components at the front-left corner; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the available images. The vehicle has extensive collision damage concentrated at the front-left corner. The front bumper cover, grille, lower fascia, and related trim are missing or severely damaged, exposing the bumper reinforcement, radiator and other cooling components, wiring, and internal front-end parts. The front-left headlamp is missing or displaced, with its mounting and surrounding components exposed. The front-left fender is severely crushed and deformed from the headlamp area toward the wheel arch, with torn and irregular panel edges. The left-front corner of the hood is also creased and deformed. The front-left wheel-arch liner and underbody trim are missing or detached. The lower rear bumper trim has several light linear scuff marks. No other damage findings were provided. The VIN identifies the vehicle as a South Korea-built 2022 Hyundai Elantra sedan with front-wheel drive, a 1.6-liter turbocharged gasoline engine rated at 201 horsepower, and a continuously variable transmission. The decoded trim is N Line. NHTSA records show several recalls applicable to this model and model year. These include recalls involving front seat-belt pretensioners that may project metal fragments during deployment, a driver air-bag cover emblem that may detach during deployment, and a rearview camera that may fail to display. The seat-belt recall numbered 22V354000 replaced earlier related pretensioner recalls. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with Hyundai or an authorized dealer, and any outstanding remedies should be completed before the vehicle is driven. Because the front-end components, lighting, cooling system, wiring, and safety-related systems are exposed or damaged, the vehicle requires a comprehensive structural, mechanical, electrical, and restraint-system inspection. The condition of the frame or unibody, suspension, steering, cooling system, air bags, seat-belt pretensioners, driver-assistance sensors, and wheel alignment cannot be determined from these findings. It should not be considered roadworthy until professionally repaired and fully tested.
