2021 HYUNDAI SANTA FE SEL w/ Premium Pkg

The vehicle is a 2021 Hyundai Santa Fe with a salvage title designation (“CERT OF TITLE-SALVAGE”) and an auction-listed primary damage classification of “FRONT END.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this unverified auction claim, with extensive damage across the front-left headlamp, bumper, grille, hood edge, and adjacent fender area. The front-left headlamp assembly is absent or extensively broken, leaving internal components and mounting areas exposed. The front bumper cover is severely torn and broken at the left corner, with missing sections and exposed mounting components. Multiple front grille elements are broken, displaced, or missing, and the lower chrome trim is cracked, displaced, and separated. The left front edge of the hood is deformed, with an uneven gap above the damaged front fascia. The front-left fender edge is also damaged around the headlamp and wheel-arch junction, with broken or missing trim and exposed mounting areas. The driver’s airbag is visibly deployed from the steering wheel. The condition of the airbag control system, seat-belt pretensioners, passenger restraint system, sensors, wiring, and structural components cannot be determined from these findings and requires a comprehensive inspection before repair or road use. According to the VIN decode, this is a left-hand-drive SUV with 4WD, a gasoline 2.5-litre four-cylinder GDI Theta III engine, and an automatic transmission. It was manufactured by Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama in the United States and is identified as an SEL with Premium Package. Listed standard equipment includes LED lower-beam headlamps, forward-collision warning, lane-keeping and lane-departure systems, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and a rearview camera; these systems may require inspection or calibration following the front-end impact. NHTSA recall records for the 2021 Santa Fe include recalls involving the windshield bonding, passenger-seat occupant detection system, automatic transmission oil-pump fail-safe operation, certain rearview cameras, and certain tow-hitch harnesses. Two listed fuel-pipe recalls apply specifically to vehicles equipped with 2.5-litre turbocharged engines, which is not established by the provided decode. Recall completion and applicability should be confirmed with Hyundai using the VIN, particularly before repair completion and registration.
