2021 MAZDA CX-5 Grand Touring

The vehicle is listed with a salvage water/flood title, and the auction’s primary damage classification is WATER/FLOOD. Stage 1 reports that this claim is not supported by the available photos: exterior, interior, and dashboard views show no unambiguous tide line, water staining, mud or silt residue, mold-like discoloration, visible corrosion, or corrosion on wiring and connectors. The instrument cluster is illuminated and displays normally without widespread malfunction indicators. Surface dirt is visible on the lower exterior panels, but it is not considered unambiguous evidence of flooding. No specific damage findings were provided in the inspection data. A physical inspection is recommended, particularly of hidden wiring, connectors, electrical modules, carpets, underbody areas, and mechanical systems, before purchase. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a Japan-built 2021 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring SUV with front-wheel drive (4x2), a 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine with cylinder deactivation, and a six-speed automatic transmission. The decoded equipment includes standard adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assistance, forward-collision warning, rear cross-traffic alert, rear visibility, and automatic emergency braking systems.
