2024 MAZDA CX-50 Preferred Package

The auction record lists a **salvage certificate of title** and identifies **front end** as the primary damage. The visible front-end damage supports the unverified front-end damage classification; however, the salvage certificate status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The vehicle has extensive collision damage at both ends. At the front, the lower center section of the bumper cover is missing, exposing internal components and mounting structure. The bumper cover is separated at both lower corners, and the right front corner is displaced with open gaps and exposed attachment areas. The hood has a continuous gap at the grille/front-fascia interface, and the right front wheel-arch molding is missing. At the rear, the bumper cover is detached and displaced at both corners, with large gaps and exposed attachment areas. The left rear wheel-arch molding is also missing, exposing mounting holes and internal trim components. The driver’s steering-wheel airbag and lower driver-side airbag are visibly deployed. The instrument cluster displays the message, **“Air Bag System Malfunction. Have the Vehicle Inspected.”** The restraint system, crash sensors, wiring, instrument-panel components, and related safety systems require complete diagnostic inspection and repair before the vehicle can be considered roadworthy. The visible findings do not establish the condition of concealed structural, suspension, steering, cooling, lighting, or mechanical components. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2024 Mazda CX-50 SUV with four-wheel drive, a 2.5-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a six-speed automatic transmission.

One NHTSA recall is listed for this model and year: certain vehicles equipped with Mazda Genuine Accessory trailer hitches may have trailer-hitch assembly bolts that loosen, allowing the assembly to separate. The listed remedy is dealer tightening of the bolts at no charge. Applicability to this specific vehicle and whether the repair has been completed should be verified by VIN and equipment inspection. Overall, the vehicle presents significant front- and rear-end collision damage, deployed driver airbags, and an active airbag-system warning. A comprehensive inspection and repair estimate should be obtained, including verification of structural alignment, restraint-system replacement, sensor and wiring integrity, and all required body and trim components.
