2018 MAZDA CX-9 Touring

The vehicle is a 2018 Mazda CX-9 with an auction-listed “CERT OF TITLE-SALVAGE” condition and “SIDE” as the primary damage classification. The visible evidence supports the stated side-damage claim, with substantial denting and deformation on the left-side doors and lower side trim. However, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs alone. The left rear door has a large, severe inward dent with multiple creases across the middle and lower sections. The lower portion of the left front door also has pronounced inward deformation and creasing. The black trim around the left rear wheel arch is partially missing, leaving mounting points and fasteners exposed. The lower cladding along the left doors and rocker area has gaps, uneven edges, and additional exposed fasteners. The lower front bumper trim is broken and separated from the painted bumper, with an open separation across the lower fascia, an irregular broken edge, and a detached section hanging below the center. The right rear bumper corner has a minor inward crease and dark abrasion marks. The interior shows moderate cosmetic wear. The second-row black seat cushions have extensive peeling, abrasion, and material loss. The front passenger seat cushion has cracking, peeling, abrasion, and wear along the front and side bolster. The center console and armrest also have visible scuffs and worn areas. According to the VIN decode, this is a left-hand-drive CX-9 SUV with a 2.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, six-speed automatic transmission, and 4x2 drivetrain. It is listed as a seven-seat vehicle manufactured by Mazda Motor Corporation in Japan. Two NHTSA safety recalls are listed for this model year. Recall 21V875000 concerns a possible low-pressure fuel-pump impeller failure that may cause engine stalling; the remedy is fuel-pump replacement. Recall 19V403000 concerns wiring-harness issues that may affect the passenger frontal air bag, turn signals, and/or engine starting system; the remedy is wiring-harness repair. The repair status for this individual vehicle should be verified with Mazda using the VIN.
