2023 HYUNDAI SONATA HYBRID Blue

The auction record lists the vehicle with a **Salvage Certificate** and **FRONT END** as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that visible damage at the front-left bumper corner supports the FRONT END classification; however, the Salvage Certificate status cannot be confirmed from the available photos. The documented damage is a moderate crack and separation in the front bumper cover at the corner adjacent to the left wheel opening. The bumper cover has a damaged edge and is separated from the adjacent fender, exposing black inner material through the gap. Inspection and repair should include the bumper cover, its mounting points, the adjacent fender area, and any components behind the bumper. The VIN decodes this vehicle as a 2023 Hyundai Sonata sedan in Blue trim, built in South Korea. It is identified as a hybrid electric vehicle with a 2.0-liter gasoline engine and a six-speed automatic transmission. Factory-listed equipment includes ABS, electronic stability control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, adaptive cruise control, and front and rear safety systems as specified by the decoder. These systems should be checked after repairs to ensure that no sensors or related wiring were affected.
