2023 HYUNDAI TUCSON SEL

This 2023 Hyundai Tucson is listed with a SALVAGE CERTIFICATE and FRONT END as the auction’s primary-damage classification. The visible front-end collision damage supports the stated FRONT END code; however, the salvage-certificate status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The front bumper cover is severely damaged, torn, and detached at the corner, with sections hanging outward and downward. Internal black components and mounting areas are exposed. The hood is raised and deformed, with an uneven front edge and creasing near the corner. The grille has displaced or broken elements and distorted trim. The front-corner lamp area and surrounding fascia are displaced, with broken or open trim. The front fender edge is deformed, and part of the wheel-arch trim is missing, leaving mounting clips visible. Deployed curtain-airbag fabric is hanging from the roofline along the side-window area, indicating that the restraint system will require inspection and likely repair or replacement. A complete assessment should include inspection of the underlying front-end structure, lighting and electrical systems, mounting points, restraint systems, and mechanical components before purchase or repair. NHTSA records list recall campaign 23V526000 for certain 2023–2024 Tucson vehicles. The electronic controller for the Idle Stop & Go oil-pump assembly may overheat, increasing the risk of fire; the listed remedy is dealer inspection and replacement of the controller as necessary. Campaign 25V893000 applies to certain 2022–2024 Tucson vehicles equipped with an optional Mobis trailer-hitch wiring harness. Incorrect installation may allow moisture into the control module, potentially causing trailer-light failure or an electrical short; the listed remedy is removal of the harness and installation of a dust cap. Recall applicability and completion should be verified by VIN with Hyundai or NHTSA.
