2022 HYUNDAI TUCSON SEL

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a CERTIFICATE OF SALVAGE and identifies FRONT END as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the stated front-end damage claim, with substantial damage at the front-right corner. The salvage-certificate status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs alone. The front-right grille has multiple broken or missing sections, leaving an open gap. The front bumper cover is detached, cracked, and deformed at the right corner, with pronounced gaps and exposed components. The front-right fender is missing, exposing the wheel and inner wheel-area components. Trim and inner components around the front-right wheel arch are also visibly damaged. White scrape marks and surface abrasion are present near the front edge of the front passenger door. The available findings describe substantial collision damage concentrated on the front-right corner. Mechanical, structural, suspension, steering, lighting, cooling-system, airbag, and alignment conditions are not established by these findings and should be checked during a physical inspection and repair assessment. NHTSA records list three recall campaigns applicable to certain 2022 Hyundai Tucson vehicles. Campaign 21V938000 concerns Integrated Central Control Unit software that may cause the headlights and/or taillights to become inoperative; the listed remedy is a free software update. Campaign 23V038000 concerns roof moldings that may detach; the remedy is inspection and replacement or securing of the moldings as necessary. Campaign 25V893000 concerns an optional Mobis trailer-hitch wiring harness that 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 before purchase.
