2023 HYUNDAI ELANTRA SEL w/Convenience Pkg

The 2023 Hyundai Elantra is listed with a salvage certificate indicating damage exceeding 75% of the vehicle’s value, and the auction’s primary damage code is FRONT END. The visible evidence supports the front-end classification through extensive damage to the bumper, grille, hood, fenders, and headlamp area. However, the photographs cannot confirm whether the total damage exceeds 75% of the vehicle’s value. The front end is severely damaged. The front bumper cover, grille, lower trim, and portions of the front-right headlamp assembly are missing or detached, exposing the radiator and other internal components. Both front corners are deformed, with particularly extensive crushing at the front-left fender and wheel area. Inner components, suspension-related parts, and surrounding structures are exposed. The hood is raised and visibly deformed across its front edge. The lower body has moderate to extensive damage on both sides. The left and right rocker panels show deep dents, creasing, scraping, torn edges, and displaced material. Damage extends into the lower portions of the front and rear doors. The extent of any structural or mechanical damage cannot be determined from these findings and should be assessed through a detailed physical inspection. The rear bumper cover and lower rear fascia are missing or displaced across the rear of the vehicle. Mounting brackets, wiring, and other rear-side components are exposed, with missing or detached trim at both rear corners. The driver’s steering-wheel airbag is visibly deployed. The restraint-system components, including the airbag system and related sensors and modules, will require inspection and likely replacement as necessary. The vehicle should not be considered roadworthy without comprehensive repair, safety-system diagnostics, and alignment and mechanical checks. Factory data identifies this vehicle as a 2023 Hyundai Elantra sedan with front-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and the SEL with Convenience Package trim. It was manufactured by Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama in the United States. Two NHTSA recalls are listed for this model and year. Recall 22V632000 concerns the driver-front airbag cover emblem, which may detach during deployment; the remedy is replacement of the airbag. Recall 23V526000 concerns the Idle Stop & Go electric oil-pump controller, which may overheat and increase the risk of fire; the remedy involves inspection and replacement of the controller as necessary. Recall completion for this particular vehicle should be verified by VIN with Hyundai or an authorized dealer.
