2025 HYUNDAI TUCSON Limited

The auction record identifies the vehicle as having a salvage certificate of title, with HAIL listed as the primary damage. Stage 1’s photo-based assessment found that the roof, hood, and rear liftgate appeared largely smooth, without the numerous shallow dents typically associated with hail damage. Its verdict was that the visible evidence does not support the unverified HAIL damage claim. The rear liftgate glass is completely missing. Broken glass fragments are visible along the lower edge of the opening and inside the vehicle, leaving the interior exposed. The left side of the upper rear liftgate spoiler and adjacent trim also have jagged, irregular breaks with exposed material. Replacement of the rear glass and repair or replacement of the damaged spoiler and related trim will be required. Additional inspection is recommended to check the liftgate structure, wiring, seals, interior, and any less visible damage before purchase or repair.
