2015 HYUNDAI SANTA FE TOP

The auction record lists the vehicle as a salvage-title vehicle with “FRONT END” as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end damage supports the auction’s front-end damage code, while the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the provided photos. The front bumper cover is missing from the left front corner, exposing internal components and leaving a large open area. The remaining bumper and adjacent lower-grille trim are broken, irregular, and displaced, with white and black fragments visible around the lower-left grille area. The left fog-lamp assembly and surrounding bezel are also missing, leaving an open cavity. Wiring and other internal front-end components are exposed below the damaged bumper, including a cable hanging downward. The vehicle is identified by VIN decoding as a 2015 Hyundai Santa Fe SUV with 4WD, a 3.3-liter gasoline DOHC GDI Lambda II engine, and a South Korean Hyundai production origin. No assessment of structural, mechanical, electrical, or restraint-system condition is provided by these findings. The exposed wiring and open front-end area should be inspected and repaired before operation. Two NHTSA recalls are listed for this make, model, and year. Recall 17V358000 concerns corrosion and binding of the secondary hood-latch cable, which could allow the hood to open while driving; the stated remedy is replacement of the cable. Recall 23V651000 concerns a possible ABS-module brake-fluid leak and electrical short that may cause an engine-compartment fire; the stated remedy is replacement of the ABS fuse. Recall completion should be verified with Hyundai before purchase or use.
