2016 LEXUS RX 350

The 2016 Lexus RX 350 is listed by the auction with a salvage-title condition and “SIDE” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the SIDE classification, based on extensive deformation of the near-side doors and rocker area. The salvage-title condition itself cannot be verified from photographs, although the visible collision damage is consistent with a salvage-auction vehicle. The vehicle has extensive collision damage affecting both the front end and near-side body. At the front, the hood has a large, sharply creased deformation on the left side, with an uneven front edge. The left headlamp assembly is missing, exposing wiring and internal components. The front bumper cover and related lower components are absent or detached, with broken pieces hanging below the grille and lying on the floor. The left front bumper corner has exposed internal parts, broken plastic, and loose components. The front grille and bumper-related components are also displaced. The near-side front fender is absent or extensively missing, exposing inner structure, wiring, and other components. The near-side front-door panel is creased and deformed along its rear edge and lower section, while the near-side rear door has extensive deep dents, sharp creases, crushed areas, and substantial deformation extending into the adjacent lower body. The rear-door gap is uneven. The near-side side mirror is broken with internal components exposed, and the rocker trim or molding is displaced, incomplete, and partially detached, leaving mounting areas exposed. The instrument display shows a “Parking Assist Malfunction” warning. This may be related to the collision damage, but the underlying cause and the condition of other electrical or safety systems cannot be determined from the provided findings. According to the VIN decode, this is a Canadian-built 2016 Lexus RX 350 SUV with a 3.5-liter gasoline V6 engine, 4WD, and a listed engine output of 270 hp. The vehicle is equipped with front, side, curtain, driver-knee, and passenger-seat-cushion airbag locations according to the factory data; the condition and deployment status of these systems are not provided. The extent of the visible damage indicates a substantial repair project. A complete inspection should include the front structure, suspension and steering components, wiring, lighting and parking-assist systems, doors and hinges, rocker and lower-body structure, airbags and seat-belt pretensioners, wheel alignment, and mechanical systems. Recall status was not checked.
