2022 HYUNDAI TUCSON SEL Convenience Pkg

The vehicle is listed with a Certificate of Salvage title and “FRONT END” as the auction’s primary-damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible damage to the front-left fender, bumper, headlamp area, and grille supports the stated front-end classification. The salvage-title status itself cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs alone. The front-left corner has severe collision damage. The front-left fender is missing, leaving inner body panels, mounting points, and wiring exposed. The detached fender panel has visible creases, deformation, and damaged mounting edges. The front bumper cover and bumper assembly are separated and damaged at the left corner, with open gaps, detached sections, broken edges, exposed components, and separated mounting tabs. The left headlamp assembly is missing, leaving an open cavity and exposed mounting areas. Several left-side grille and front-fascia sections are displaced, broken, or absent. The extent of damage indicates that front-end repair and component replacement will be required. The available findings do not establish the condition of the underlying structure, suspension, steering, cooling system, wiring, airbags, or mechanical components; these should be inspected before purchase.
