2016 JEEP COMPASS LATITUDE FWD

The vehicle is a 2016 Jeep Compass listed with a salvage certificate and “FRONT END” as the auction’s primary-damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end deformation and broken front components support the stated front-end damage claim; however, the salvage certificate status cannot be confirmed from photos. The front end has extensive collision damage. The hood is severely crushed and creased across the leading edge and both front corners, with the front edge pushed downward and irregular gaps above the grille and headlights. The headlamp on the left side of the image has a broken lens and damaged housing, with separated and missing sections. The front bumper cover is moderately damaged, including cracks, torn edges, and separated sections around the left corner and below the grille. The grille surround and adjacent upper trim are also broken and separated, leaving open gaps and exposing components behind the grille. The front fender beside the damaged headlamp has visible crushing, sharp creases, and broken or separated trim. Front cooling components in the radiator and condenser area are exposed behind the removed or broken front trim, with damage to surrounding plastic and metal pieces visible at the lower front corners. The extent of any damage to the cooling system, structural components, lighting systems, or other mechanical parts requires physical inspection and functional testing. Inside the vehicle, the front center-console armrest covering has a torn and peeling section, considered minor cosmetic damage. One NHTSA safety recall applies to certain 2016 Jeep Compass vehicles manufactured from May 9 through July 15, 2016. Recall 16V907000 concerns an engine crankshaft or camshaft sensor connector that may operate intermittently and cause the engine to stall, increasing crash risk. The stated remedy is replacement of the connector by a dealer at no charge. The vehicle’s manufacturing date and recall completion status should be verified by VIN with an authorized Jeep dealer.
