2025 HYUNDAI TUCSON SEL

The 2025 Hyundai Tucson is listed with a salvage certificate of title and “FRONT END” as the auction’s primary-damage classification. The visible extensive front-end damage supports the stated FRONT END classification; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the available photographs. The front end has severe collision damage. The hood is heavily folded and sharply creased, particularly toward the image-right front corner and leading edge. The bumper cover, lower fascia, grille, and surrounding trim are extensively broken, detached, displaced, or missing. Several components are hanging below the vehicle, and open gaps expose the radiator/condenser area, brackets, wiring, and other internal front-end components. The image-right headlamp area is severely damaged, with the lamp assembly absent or extensively broken. The surrounding fender, wheel-arch, lamp-surround, and corner panels are displaced and deformed, with broken or missing trim and exposed mounting areas. Loose wiring and additional plastic and trim pieces are visible outside the bodywork. The extent of the damage means that the condition of hidden structural, cooling, electrical, driver-assistance, and mechanical components requires a thorough physical inspection. The driver’s steering-wheel airbag is visibly deployed. Airbag-system components, including the steering-wheel module and related restraint-system parts, will require inspection and likely replacement. The vehicle should not be considered roadworthy without comprehensive collision repair, safety-system diagnosis, and verification of all affected systems. NHTSA recall records provided for the 2025 Tucson include recalls concerning a missing glove-box airbag warning label (24V691000), console-extension wiring that could allow shifting out of Park without applying the brake (24V877000), potentially improperly tightened engine connecting-rod bolts (25V549000), improperly installed side-curtain airbags (25V809000), front-camera software that may cause premature automatic braking (26V316000), and an instrument-panel display software issue that may cause the display to fail (26V400000). Recall applicability and completion should be confirmed by VIN with Hyundai or NHTSA, particularly because some listed remedies and notification dates are future-dated in the supplied records.
