2019 HYUNDAI TUCSON

The vehicle is listed with a salvage certificate and an auction primary-damage classification of FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible missing or open lower front bumper trim is consistent with the FRONT END classification, but the provided photographs do not show major front-end deformation. The salvage-certificate status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The documented damage is moderate and located at the lower center of the front bumper. This area has an open section with irregular exposed black material and visible gaps where the lower bumper trim or insert appears to be missing. Replacement of the missing trim or insert may be required, and the surrounding bumper area should be inspected for additional damage. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2019 Hyundai Tucson SUV with front-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a six-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Hyundai Motor Company in South Korea. An NHTSA safety recall applies to certain 2019–2021 Tucson vehicles under campaign 20V543000. The recall concerns possible internal corrosion of the anti-lock brake hydraulic electronic control unit, which could cause an electrical short and increase the risk of an engine-compartment fire. The specified remedy is replacement of the HECU fuse and an electronic stability control software update. Recall completion should be verified with Hyundai before purchase.
