2022 HYUNDAI PALISADE SE

The 2022 Hyundai Palisade is listed with a salvage certificate of title, and the auction identifies the primary damage as rear-end damage. The provided photo assessment reports that the visible rear-end damage supports the stated rear-end classification; however, the salvage-certificate status cannot be confirmed from the photos. The rear bumper cover is missing, exposing the lower rear body and bumper components. Both rear tail-lamp assemblies are absent, leaving open mounting areas on the left and right rear corners. The rear liftgate outer panel has broad dents, creases, and irregular deformation across its lower and central sections. Additional deformation and exposed irregular edges are visible around the left rear corner and tail-lamp opening. A detached rear bumper cover and related trim/components are shown separately on the ground. These findings indicate substantial rear-end collision damage and the need for comprehensive inspection and repair, including checks of the underlying bumper structure, body alignment, lighting wiring, liftgate operation, and safety systems. According to the VIN decode, this is a Palisade SUV with front-wheel drive (4x2), a 3.8-liter gasoline GDI Lambda II engine, an eight-speed automatic transmission, three rows, and seating for eight. The vehicle was manufactured by Hyundai Motor Company in South Korea and is identified as the SE trim. The decode also lists standard features including ABS, electronic stability control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, rear automatic emergency braking, and a rear visibility system. The operation and condition of these systems should be verified after repairs. NHTSA records list recalls for this model and year involving the instrument-cluster display, certain trailer-hitch harnesses, windshield-wiper operation, rear seat-belt buckles, and third-row side-curtain air-bag deployment. Recall completion should be confirmed by VIN with Hyundai or NHTSA before purchase, and any outstanding remedies should be performed by an authorized dealer.
