2017 HYUNDAI TUCSON

The vehicle is listed with a CERT OF TITLE-SALVAGE designation and an auction primary-damage code of REAR END. Stage 1 reports that the visible extensive rear-end damage supports the auction’s unverified REAR END classification. The salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The most significant damage is concentrated at the rear. The rear bumper cover is missing, exposing the bumper reinforcement, inner body components, and lower bumper structure. Both rear corners have open gaps, irregular or torn panel edges, and displaced or detached bumper and mounting components. The left rear corner and lower edge of the tailgate show creasing, crushed sections, and torn metal. The lower half of the liftgate is heavily crushed and creased across its width, and the license-plate mounting area is distorted. The right rear bumper corner is absent or displaced, with exposed components and an open gap beneath the right taillight. The full extent of any underlying structural, sensor, lighting, or mechanical damage requires physical inspection. The front bumper also has moderate damage. A lower outer corner of the bumper fascia and black trim is cracked, broken, and partially separated. Inside, dark stains and discoloration are visible on both front seat cushions and across the rear seat cushion. These are cosmetic findings; their cause is not established by the provided information.
