2022 MAZDA CX-30 Preferred Package

The auction records list this 2022 Mazda CX-30 as having a salvage vehicle title with “REAR END” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the rear-end damage claim, with extensive deformation, missing components, and exposed structure at the left rear corner and lower liftgate. Stage 1 also notes that the salvage-title status cannot be independently confirmed from exterior photographs. The most significant damage is concentrated at the left rear. The left rear quarter panel is heavily crushed and deformed around the wheel arch, with exposed inner components and torn panel edges. The left rear bumper corner and adjacent trim are missing or torn away, while the wheel-arch cladding is broken or absent. The lower-left liftgate is creased and pushed inward around the license-plate recess. The left side of the rear bumper assembly is severely torn and deformed, with a large missing section and exposed components near the exhaust outlet. Light-colored scuffing is also visible on the lower rear bumper. At the front, a section of the lower grille or bumper trim below the main grille is missing, exposing mounting hardware and an open area. Several minor paint chips or abrasions are present along the front edge of the hood. The instrument cluster displays the warning, “Rear Side Radar Malfunction Drive Safely.” This indicates a concern with the rear side radar or blind-spot monitoring system, although the available findings do not establish whether the cause is a damaged sensor, wiring, calibration issue, or another component. The system should be diagnosed and repaired, with related safety functions verified before the vehicle is placed into service. According to the VIN decode, this is a four-wheel-drive CX-30 with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine and a six-speed automatic transmission. It was manufactured by Mazda Motor Manufacturing de Mexico in Mexico. Factory-listed equipment includes blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assistance, forward-collision warning, pedestrian automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, ABS, and electronic stability control.
