The auction record identifies the vehicle as severely accident-damaged (“GRAVEMENT ACCIDENTE”), with SIDE listed as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports both the severe-accident condition and the SIDE classification, citing substantial collision damage to the left front side, including the fender, door-area structure, mirror position, bumper, and deployed airbags. Visible damage is concentrated on the left front corner and adjoining side area. The left front fender and wheel arch are severely crushed and deeply creased around the headlamp, with exposed, irregular panel edges. The left headlamp lens and housing are extensively cracked, scuffed, and deformed. The left front bumper corner is scraped and deformed, while the wheel-arch trim is broken and displaced. Pronounced creasing, scraped paint, displaced trim, and an irregular damaged seam extend from the fender toward the left A-pillar and front door leading edge. Debris is adhered in the damaged seam. The left front door has additional creasing, abrasions, and paint transfer, and the exterior mirror assembly is missing. Multiple airbags are visibly deployed inside the cabin. White airbags are hanging from the windshield-side roof area, the passenger-side seating area, and both sides of the roof, including the curtain-airbag areas.

Campaign 23V526000 concerns the Idle Stop & Go electric oil-pump controller, which may overheat and increase the risk of fire; the remedy involves inspection and replacement of the controller 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. The repair status for these recalls is not provided. The visible findings do not establish the condition of concealed components, the mechanical systems, or the full extent of damage behind the damaged panels.
