2025 MAZDA CX-5 Premium Plus

The auction lists the vehicle with a salvage-title condition and “SIDE” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible extensive damage to the driver-side front door supports the auction’s unverified SIDE claim. Stage 1 also notes that the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed or contradicted from the available photos. The driver-side front door is severely crushed and torn. Large sections of the outer door skin are missing, exposing the internal metal reinforcement, while the remaining metal has extensive creasing and jagged edges. The driver-side front window glass is missing from the door opening; a separate glass panel is visible beside the removed door-trim panel. Side-curtain airbag fabric is hanging from the roof and headliner area above the front seating area, and additional deployed side-airbag fabric is visible beside the front seat and along the upper side of the cabin. The airbag restraint system and related impact-safety components will require detailed inspection and repair assessment. The instrument cluster displays “Blind Spot Monitoring Sensor(s) Malfunction,” indicating a concern with the blind-spot monitoring system that should be diagnosed. This is relevant because the decoded vehicle equipment lists Blind Spot Monitoring and Rear Cross Traffic Alert as standard features. The VIN decodes as a 2025 Mazda CX-5 Premium Plus, a four-wheel-drive SUV built in Japan. It is equipped with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, a six-speed automatic transmission, and standard driver-assistance and restraint features including adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assistance, forward-collision warning, curtain airbags for the first and second rows, and front side airbags. A complete structural, electrical, airbag, sensor, door, window, and restraint-system inspection is recommended before purchase or repair.
