2020 MAZDA CX-5 Grand Touring

The auction record lists a **Salvage Certificate of Title** and identifies the primary damage as **rear end**. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the rear-end damage claim, with extensive damage at the right-rear quarter panel and rear bumper. Stage 1 also notes that salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The right-rear quarter panel and wheel-arch area show severe crushing, deep creasing, scraped paint, and deformation around the fuel-filler door and rear wheel opening. The right side of the rear bumper cover is displaced and detached, with a large black section hanging below the rear corner. Exterior trim below the rear liftgate window is missing, exposing mounting holes and underlying surfaces, and a large section of the right-rear wheel-arch molding is also absent. A front-seat side airbag is visibly deployed, with the airbag fabric and padding exposed through the opened seat-side upholstery. The instrument cluster displays a “Smart Brake System Malfunction” message, and the ABS warning indicator is illuminated. The underlying cause of these warnings cannot be established from the available findings and requires diagnostic inspection. The VIN decodes this vehicle as a 2020 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring SUV, built in Japan. It has a 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, six-speed automatic transmission, and 4x2 drive configuration. Factory-listed equipment includes ABS, electronic stability control, forward-collision warning, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, rear visibility system, and front and side airbags. A full structural, suspension, wheel, airbag, restraint-system, brake, electrical, and diagnostic inspection is recommended before purchase.
