2022 HYUNDAI SANTA FE SEL w/ Premium Pkg

The auction record identifies this 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe as having a “SIDE” primary-damage classification and a salvage certificate of title. Stage 1 reports that the visible dents, creasing, scraping, and damaged trim on one side support the stated SIDE classification. The salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The main visible damage is concentrated on one side of the vehicle. The lower rear door has pronounced dents, creases, and scraped paint, with additional deformation and scuffing around the adjacent rear wheel arch. The black wheel-arch molding and lower side skirt have torn, irregular edges, surface damage, and a displaced section. The lower rear quarter-panel area ahead of the rear wheel also shows creasing, dents, and light-colored scrape marks. The reported damage is collision-related; the condition of hidden structural, suspension, wheel, mechanical, and safety-system components is not established by these findings. VIN decoding identifies the vehicle as a 2022 Hyundai Santa Fe SUV with front-wheel drive (4x2), a 2.5-litre four-cylinder gasoline engine, automatic transmission, and SEL trim with Premium Package. The vehicle was manufactured by Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama in the United States. NHTSA records list recalls for certain vehicles of this model and year, including potential fuel-pipe leakage on vehicles with 2.5-litre turbocharged engines, a turbocharger oil-supply-pipe issue, an automatic-transmission fail-safe and drive-power issue, a tow-hitch harness electrical-short risk, and a rearview-camera failure. Applicability and completion status should be verified directly by VIN with Hyundai or an authorised dealer, particularly because the decoded engine information does not by itself confirm whether the turbocharged-engine recalls apply.
