2022 JEEP WAGONEER SERIES III 4X4

The auction record identifies this 2022 Jeep Wagoneer as having a salvage certificate of title with “FRONT END” listed as the primary damage. Stage 1’s assessment reports that the visible severe front-end collision damage supports the unverified “FRONT END” damage code; however, the salvage-certificate status itself cannot be confirmed from the available images. The front-left corner has severe damage. The fender around the wheel opening is heavily crushed and torn, with substantial body material missing and the suspension area exposed. The front-left wheel and tire assembly are absent, and the coil spring and other suspension components are visible. The left headlamp assembly is broken and largely missing, with internal components and mounting areas exposed. The front bumper cover and lower trim are cracked, broken, detached, and partially missing. The grille and adjacent front trim are also broken and separated. The left edge of the hood is creased and deformed, with an uneven panel gap over the damaged fender area. A large lower-front splash shield is detached and hanging beneath the bumper. Inside the cabin, the steering-wheel airbag, passenger dashboard airbag, and side-curtain airbags are visibly deployed. Complete restraint-system replacement, inspection of the airbag control system, and structural and suspension checks will be required. The extent of any damage behind the visible panels, to the frame or mounting points, steering components, braking system, drivetrain, wiring, and cooling system cannot be determined from these findings. A possible electronic transmission or park-engagement concern should also be investigated. The instrument cluster reportedly displays “Service Trans” and instructions to press the brake and switch the engine off to engage Park, along with multiple warning indicators. This may indicate a transmission or park-control system issue, but the cause and whether the vehicle operates normally cannot be confirmed from the available images. According to the VIN decode, this is a U.S.-built 2022 Jeep Wagoneer Series III with four-wheel drive, a 5.7-liter gasoline V8 rated at 392 horsepower, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The VIN is 1C4SJVDT5NS227946. NHTSA records list recalls for this model and year involving the second-row center-seat recliner strap, occupant-restraint-controller software, rearview-camera and park-assist software, upper B-pillar trim that may interfere with side-curtain airbag deployment, third-row seat-belt buckles, driver and passenger door trim, and quarter-window trim. Recall repairs should be verified by VIN with Jeep or an authorized dealer before the vehicle is returned to service.
