2017 JEEP PATRIOT SPORT FWD

This 2017 Jeep Patriot is listed with a certificate of title marked salvage. The auction’s primary-damage classification is FRONT END, an unverified auction claim. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim: severe deformation and tearing are visible at the hood and upper front-end area. The hood has severe damage, including extensive sharp creases, deep deformation, longitudinal and transverse buckling, a distorted front edge, and multiple torn or folded sections. The left front hood corner is torn and folded, leaving the engine compartment visibly exposed. Large irregular gaps are present between the hood, grille, and upper front-end area, with internal components visible behind the grille. The left front upper fascia contains broken or displaced pieces, with open gaps around the deformed hood edge. The visible support area behind the grille and below the hood is creased, uneven, and partially torn around the hood-latch region. The findings confirm substantial damage to the hood and upper front structure; the condition of components not visible in the provided findings requires further inspection. According to the VIN decode, this is a U.S.-built, left-hand-drive 2017 Jeep Patriot Sport SUV with front-wheel drive, a 2.4-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, a four-speed transmission, and seating for five. Standard listed safety equipment includes front, side-curtain, and side airbags, ABS, electronic stability control, traction control, and dynamic brake support.
