2019 MERCEDES-BENZ A 220 A220

The auction lists the primary damage as Front End. Stage 1’s photo review states that the visible evidence supports this claim, with extensive damage to the front bumper, grille, hood, front-left fender, headlamp area, and front fascia components. The vehicle has severe front-end collision damage. The front bumper cover and lower fascia are detached, torn, and hanging below the vehicle; a broken bumper section is also lying on the ground in front of the car. The grille is broken and missing sections, exposing the underlying support and cooling components. The front-left headlamp is missing, leaving its mounting cavity open. The front-left fender and surrounding corner bodywork are severely crushed and torn, with exposed metal, broken plastic, missing trim, and detached components. The hood is bent and creased along the front edge and left-front corner, with chipped and abraded paint. The exposed front area includes the radiator and condenser area, wiring, and front support components; their operating condition and any hidden structural or mechanical damage require physical inspection. The images do not establish whether the vehicle is operable or whether safety-system components were affected. Minor cosmetic damage is also visible at the rear, consisting of localized white paint-transfer marks and chipped areas on the rear bumper and lower trunk-area surfaces. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2019 Mercedes-Benz A-Class A 220 sedan with front-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a seven-speed automated manual transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz Cars in Mexico. Official NHTSA recall records supplied for this model and year include campaigns involving the driver-side frontal airbag module, fuel rail and injectors, LED headlight adjustment, emergency-call communication software, rearview-camera display and software, and, in a later campaign, the driver’s door-lock microswitch. Recall completion and applicability to this specific VIN should be confirmed with Mercedes-Benz or through NHTSA before purchase.
