2021 MAZDA CX-5 Touring

The 2021 Mazda CX-5 is listed with a salvage certificate and “FRONT END” as the auction’s primary-damage classification. The visible extensive front-end damage supports the FRONT END classification; however, the salvage-certificate status cannot be confirmed from the available photos. The vehicle has severe damage concentrated at the front left side. The hood is extensively creased, buckled, and lifted, particularly along the left-front edge. The front bumper cover is torn and displaced, with missing sections and exposed components across the lower and corner areas. The grille surround, grille, and lower fascia contain broken and displaced trim, missing pieces, exposed mounting points, and irregular gaps. The front left headlamp assembly is absent, leaving an open cavity with exposed internal components. The front left fender is severely crushed and sharply creased around the leading edge and wheel arch. Additional damage is visible behind the bumper, including broken brackets, wiring, and other front-end components. Metal and plastic panels in the upper radiator and fender area are crushed, torn, and displaced. The extent of the visible damage warrants inspection of the underlying front-end structure, cooling system, wiring, lighting, suspension, and alignment before repair or road use. A “Power Steering Malfunction” message and power-steering warning indicator are displayed on the instrument cluster. The underlying system condition cannot be diagnosed from the available images and should be checked with diagnostic equipment and a physical inspection. According to the VIN decode, this is a Japan-built 2021 Mazda CX-5 Touring SUV with four-wheel drive, a 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a six-speed automatic transmission. Factory-listed safety and driver-assistance equipment includes ABS, electronic stability control, traction control, adaptive cruise control, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, and rear cross-traffic alert. These systems should be tested after repairs, as front-end damage may affect related sensors, wiring, and calibration.
