2025 MAZDA CX-50 Premium

The vehicle is listed by the auction with a salvage certificate and “FRONT END” as the primary damage classification. The visible extensive front-end damage supports the stated FRONT END primary-damage code. The salvage certificate status itself cannot be confirmed from the available photos. The front hood has severe deformation, with multiple pronounced creases, buckled areas, and an uneven raised gap above the grille and headlights. It is sharply folded near the front corner, where a large irregular opening exposes components below. The front bumper cover and lower fascia are severely cracked, displaced, and partially missing. Inner mounting areas and other components are exposed, and a large bumper section is hanging beside the front wheel. The front fender around the wheel arch is severely crumpled, with irregular damaged edges and exposed mounting points near the headlamp and bumper junction. The black wheel-arch molding is detached and hanging downward. The grille and surrounding fascia are separated and uneven, with open gaps and exposed dark components. A long black trim piece, a grille insert, and a vent-shaped trim piece are also lying separately beside the vehicle. Light-colored scuffing is visible on the damaged bumper and adjacent front corner panel. The driver airbag is deployed from the steering wheel, with additional deployed fabric visible from the lower driver-side dashboard. The instrument cluster displays: “Air Bag System Malfunction. Have the Vehicle Inspected.” The restraint and airbag systems will require comprehensive inspection, replacement of deployed components, and proper calibration before the vehicle can be considered safe to operate. The available findings do not establish the condition of the engine, transmission, suspension, steering, cooling system, electrical systems, or structural components.
