2022 HYUNDAI TUCSON LIMITED

The 2022 Hyundai Tucson is listed by the auction as **Salvage**, with **Rear** recorded as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible extensive rear collision damage supports the stated rear primary-damage code; however, the salvage status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs alone. The rear of the vehicle has severe collision damage. The rear bumper cover and both tail-lamp assemblies are missing, leaving underlying components, mounting areas, and open lamp cavities exposed. The lower rear liftgate is extensively crushed, with sharp creases, irregular contours, and displaced panels across its width. Both rear quarter-panel areas near the tail-lamp openings are deformed, creased, and torn or displaced. Additional damage includes broken or displaced trim around the right rear quarter and wheel-arch area, exposed wiring and connectors hanging from the lower rear corners, and a detached rear bumper-related component lying behind the vehicle. The VIN decodes as a U.S.-built 2022 Hyundai Tucson SUV with a 2.5-litre four-cylinder gasoline engine, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and 4x2 drive. The decoded trim is Limited. Listed standard equipment includes curtain, front, and front-side airbags, electronic stability control, blind-spot monitoring, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, rear cross-traffic alert, rear automatic emergency braking, and a rear visibility system. The condition of these systems cannot be determined from the supplied findings, and the exposed rear wiring and missing lamps require careful inspection and repair. Three NHTSA recalls are listed for this model year. Recall 21V938000 concerns Integrated Central Control Unit software that could cause the headlights or taillights to become inoperative; the stated remedy was a free software update. Recall 23V038000 concerns roof moldings that may detach, with inspection, replacement, or securing provided free of charge. Recall 25V893000 applies to vehicles equipped with an optional Mobis trailer-hitch wiring harness; incorrectly installed wiring may allow moisture into the control module and cause trailer-light failure or an electrical short. Recall completion and equipment applicability should be verified by VIN with Hyundai or an authorized dealer.
