2017 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE TRAILHAWK 4X4

This 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee is listed with a salvage certificate of title and an auction primary-damage designation of FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim: deformation and scraping are visible at one front corner around the fender, headlamp area, and bumper. The front corner panel has moderate deformation, with creasing around the headlamp and wheel-arch area, exposed light-colored abrasion marks, and disturbed panel surfaces. The adjacent front fender has a pronounced crease and irregular deformation above and behind the headlamp, along with scraped paint and abrasions. The front bumper corner has minor scuffing, scraped paint, and an irregular damaged surface. These findings are concentrated at the front corner; the supplied findings do not establish the condition of hidden components, structural elements, alignment, lighting, or safety systems. Inside, the driver’s seat outer bolster shows minor surface cracking and abrasion in the leather-like upholstery. VIN decoding identifies the vehicle as a U.S.-built 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Trailhawk SUV with four-wheel drive, a 3.6-liter gasoline V6 engine rated at 295 horsepower, five seats, and an 18-inch wheel size. The decoded vehicle is not identified as a diesel model or an SRT model. NHTSA records list recall 18V332000 for certain 2014–2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee vehicles, concerning a wiring defect that could prevent cruise control from disengaging; the remedy involves a software update. Recall 16V686000 concerns certain 2017 Grand Cherokee vehicles manufactured from August 8 through August 16, 2016, involving rear tow-hook bracket bolts. The vehicle’s manufacture date and completion status for these recalls are not provided, so dealer confirmation by VIN is recommended. Other listed recalls concern diesel-powered Grand Cherokee models or SRT vehicles with aftermarket superchargers and may not apply to this 3.6-liter Trailhawk. A detailed physical inspection is recommended before purchase, particularly of the damaged front corner and any related hidden or safety-critical components.
