2025 HYUNDAI SANTA FE Calligraphy

The auction record identifies this 2025 Hyundai Santa Fe as having a salvage title and lists FRONT END as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end damage supports the stated FRONT END classification; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the photographs. The front bumper assembly is severely damaged, with extensive crushing, tearing, wrinkling, and broken plastic sections. The detached assembly has exposed wiring, connectors, and mounting components. The front bumper cover, lower fascia, air-intake and trim components are missing from the vehicle, leaving the bumper reinforcement, cooling components, lower mounting structures, wiring, and other hardware exposed. Plastic trim and attachment sections near one front headlamp are broken, separated, or missing. A front bumper side section and surrounding black plastic trim at the opposite corner are also absent or damaged, creating an open gap with internal components visible. The provided findings concern the front exterior; the condition of other systems and any hidden structural or mechanical damage is not established. NHTSA records list five recalls associated with this vehicle’s make, model, and year. Campaign 25V549000 concerns potentially improperly tightened connecting-rod bolts that may cause engine damage or loss of drive power; the stated remedy is engine replacement where required. Campaign 25V659000 concerns an improperly installed starter-motor positive-terminal cover that may cause an electrical short during a crash. Campaign 25V808000 concerns rearview-camera wiring that may prevent the camera image from displaying. Campaign 25V809000 concerns side-curtain air bags that may not have been installed properly. Campaign 26V218000 concerns front seat-belt anchors that may detach. These recall records should be checked against the vehicle’s VIN and service history to confirm applicability and completion.
