2022 MAZDA CX-30 Preferred Package

The vehicle is listed with a salvage title and the auction’s primary-damage code is “SIDE.” Stage 1 reports that the visible severe deformation and scraping on the left-side doors support this unverified SIDE classification. However, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the available exterior and interior photographs. The 2022 Mazda CX-30 has severe damage to the left front door, including deep deformation, multiple creases, extensive paint abrasion, and light-colored paint transfer extending across the middle and lower sections. The left rear door also has broad deformation, creasing, scraping, and paint-transfer marks. These findings are consistent with significant impact damage along the vehicle’s left side. Inside the vehicle, the right-side curtain/side airbag is deployed, with white airbag fabric hanging from the roof edge and additional material exposed beside the right front seat. The outer bolster of the right front seat is torn open, exposing light-colored internal material. The instrument cluster displays “ABS Malfunction Have the Vehicle Inspected,” and multiple warning indicators are illuminated. The cause and extent of any related mechanical, electrical, braking, restraint-system, or structural damage cannot be determined from these findings alone. According to the VIN decode, this is a four-wheel-drive CX-30 SUV with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine and six-speed automatic transmission, manufactured in Mexico. The decoded equipment includes standard ABS, front and side airbags, curtain airbags for the first and second rows, electronic stability control, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and several driver-assistance systems. An official NHTSA recall, campaign 23V275000, concerns the ABS hydraulic control unit, which may be damaged and result in reduced braking ability; the remedy is inspection and replacement of the unit as necessary, free of charge. Recall completion should be verified with Mazda. A comprehensive pre-purchase inspection is strongly recommended, including diagnostic scanning, brake and ABS-system testing, airbag and seat-belt-system inspection, and assessment of the doors, surrounding structure, and vehicle alignment.
