2024 HYUNDAI PALISADE Limited

The auction record identifies the vehicle as “BILL OF SALE–SALVAGE” with a primary damage classification of “SIDE.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence partially supports the SIDE classification because the left exterior mirror is incomplete; however, the most prominent additional damage is a heavily cracked windshield. Stage 1 also states that the bill-of-sale/salvage status cannot be confirmed from the provided photos alone. The 2024 Hyundai Palisade has multiple severe cracks forming a spiderweb pattern across the lower-left windshield, with branching cracks extending upward. The left exterior side-view mirror is incomplete: only a black mounting/base section is visible, while the normal mirror housing and reflective glass are not visibly present. The full extent of related structural, electrical, glass, and safety-system damage requires an in-person inspection. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2024 Hyundai Palisade Limited SUV with 4WD, a 3.8-liter gasoline GDI Lambda II engine, and manufacture in South Korea. Listed standard equipment includes ABS, electronic stability control, traction control, adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and multiple air-bag systems. The condition of these systems has not been established by the supplied findings. NHTSA records list five recalls for this make, model, and year: a possible overheating Idle Stop & Go oil-pump controller, a passenger-seat occupant-detection software issue, engine valve springs that may break and cause loss of drive power, rear seat-belt buckles that may fail to latch, and possible improper deployment of third-row side-curtain air bags. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with Hyundai or NHTSA before purchase, and any outstanding remedies should be completed by an authorized dealer.
