2022 HYUNDAI PALISADE Caligraphy

The auction record lists a salvage title with front-end damage as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that visible front bumper damage, windshield cracking, and deployed front airbags support the front-end damage code; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the provided photos. The front bumper corner and lower fascia are severely damaged on the left side, with missing or broken sections, an open cavity, exposed components, and additional broken plastic near the lower edge. The windshield has multiple branching cracks and impact lines extending across the lower-left to central area. The driver and front-passenger airbags are visibly deployed from the steering wheel and passenger-side dashboard. These items indicate that significant collision-related repairs will be required, including evaluation of the front structure, replacement of damaged bumper components and glazing, and comprehensive inspection and restoration of the airbag and restraint systems. The VIN decodes as a 2022 Hyundai Palisade SUV/MPV built in South Korea, equipped with four-wheel drive, a 3.8-litre gasoline GDI Lambda II engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle is decoded with three rows and seating for seven occupants. NHTSA records list several recalls for the 2022 Palisade. Campaign 22V353000 concerns an instrument-cluster display that may fail and calls for cluster replacement. Campaign 22V633000 concerns a tow-hitch harness that may short and cause a fire; the remedy involves a fuse and wire-extension kit where necessary. Campaign 23V180000 concerns possible windshield-wiper failure and calls for replacement of the driver-side wiper arm. Campaign 25V607000 concerns rear and other seat-belt buckles that may fail to latch, with buckle replacement as the remedy. Campaign 26V034000 concerns possible improper deployment of third-row side-curtain airbags; the remedy involves protective film installation and removal of padding as necessary. Recall completion should be verified by VIN and with Hyundai before the vehicle is returned to service.
