2024 HYUNDAI PALISADE XRT

The 2024 Hyundai Palisade is listed by the auction with a salvage vehicle title and a primary damage classification of FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible severe front-end damage supports the auction’s FRONT END classification; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The most significant damage is concentrated at the front-left corner. The hood is extensively crushed and sharply folded, particularly on the left side and front edge. The front-left fender and wheel-opening area are heavily crushed and torn, with irregular exposed edges and displaced material. The front bumper, lower fascia, grille, and surrounding trim are broken, displaced, or missing, leaving open gaps and exposing internal front-end components. Loose or hanging wiring is visible, and several detached grille and bumper pieces are shown separately with fractured mounting areas. The front-left headlamp assembly and its surrounding body material are absent or visibly broken, exposing additional internal components and wiring. The hood is raised above the normal front body line, and multiple upper and lower front trim sections are cracked, displaced, or missing. The extent of the visible damage indicates that the front end will require substantial repair and replacement work. Damage to underlying structural, cooling, steering, suspension, restraint, sensor, and electrical components cannot be determined from the provided findings and should be assessed through a complete physical inspection before purchase. A broad dent and crease are also present across the lower-to-middle section of the visible front side door. Light linear scuffing is reported on the rear side quarter panel. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2024 Hyundai Palisade XRT SUV, VIN KM8R34GE1RU790188, manufactured by Hyundai Motor Co. in South Korea. The decoded specifications include a gasoline 3.8-liter GDI Lambda II engine and 4x2 drive. The VIN data also lists standard features including ABS, electronic stability control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assistance, blind-spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, curtain airbags for all three rows, and front and rear automatic emergency braking. NHTSA records provided for the 2024 Palisade list recalls involving the Idle Stop & Go oil-pump controller, the front-passenger occupant-detection system on vehicles with dark premium suede seats, engine valve springs, certain rear seat-belt buckles, and third-row side-curtain air-bag deployment. Recall applicability and completion should be confirmed by checking this VIN with Hyundai or NHTSA before operating the vehicle.
