2022 HYUNDAI TUCSON SEL

The vehicle is a 2022 Hyundai Tucson SEL with a salvage title. The auction lists HAIL as the primary damage. However, the Stage 1 photo review reports that the roof, hood, and rear hatch/decklid appear largely smooth, with no concentrated hail-dent pattern visible on the horizontal panels; the photos therefore do not support the stated hail-damage claim. No additional damage findings were provided. The absence of documented findings does not confirm the vehicle’s mechanical, structural, electrical, or safety condition, so a thorough physical inspection is recommended before purchase. According to the VIN decode, this Tucson is a four-wheel-drive SUV manufactured in the United States. It is equipped with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, an eight-speed automatic transmission, and standard safety features including forward-collision warning, pedestrian automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and rear automatic emergency braking. The VIN is associated with several NHTSA recalls for the 2022 Tucson. Recall 21V938000 concerns incompatible Integrated Central Control Unit software that could cause the headlights or taillights to become inoperative. Recall 23V038000 concerns roof moldings that may detach. Recall 25V893000 applies to vehicles equipped with an optional Mobis trailer-hitch wiring harness; water entering the control module may cause trailer-light failure or an electrical short. Recall repairs and applicability should be confirmed with Hyundai or an authorized dealer before purchase.
