2021 HYUNDAI PALISADE Limited

The auction record lists this 2021 Hyundai Palisade as having a salvage vehicle title, with “front end” identified as the primary damage. The visible severe damage concentrated at the left front supports the front-end primary-damage claim; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photos. The left front fender is missing, exposing the wheel-well area and adjacent components. The left front bumper corner is severely broken and partially absent, with detached edges and exposed components. The left front headlamp assembly is absent or extensively damaged, leaving its mounting area and wiring exposed. The left side of the hood has a raised, irregular edge and moderate deformation. Severe crushing and tearing are visible at the leading edge of the left front door and hinge area, with mounting components exposed. The left exterior mirror is missing, with its wiring and mounting hardware exposed. The left front wheel well and front corner also show exposed internal components, wiring, and broken body-panel edges. The extent of the damage indicates that repairs will require replacement body, lighting, mirror, and bumper components, along with inspection of the underlying mounting structures, wiring, suspension, steering, and safety systems. VIN decoding identifies the vehicle as a 2021 Hyundai Palisade Limited SUV with four-wheel drive, a 3.8-liter gasoline GDI Lambda II engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. It was manufactured by Hyundai Motor Company in South Korea. NHTSA records list recalls for this model year involving possible brake-fluid contamination that may reduce braking performance, windshield-wiper operation, a potentially hazardous tow-hitch harness electrical short where applicable, rear seat-belt buckle latching, and third-row side-curtain air-bag deployment. The recall remedies and completion status should be verified by VIN with Hyundai before the vehicle is returned to service.
