2019 MERCEDES-BENZ C 300 4MATIC

This 2019 Mercedes-Benz C 300 is listed with a salvage condition and “Front End” as the auction’s primary-damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this classification, with damage concentrated around the front-left headlamp, bumper, and fender areas. The front-left headlamp assembly is missing, leaving the lamp cavity open and exposing internal components. The front bumper cover has severe cracking, tearing, heavy scraping, displaced material, and a large opening at the front-left lower corner. Sections of the bumper or adjacent lower insert are missing. The front-left fender edge is visibly deformed, scuffed, and has chipped or scraped paint around the headlamp and wheel-opening area. The supplied findings document exterior front-left collision damage only. They do not establish the condition of the underlying structure, cooling system, suspension, steering, wiring, safety systems, engine, transmission, or drivetrain. A physical inspection should confirm whether any components behind the damaged areas require replacement or alignment and whether the vehicle can be safely repaired and operated. VIN decoding identifies the vehicle as a Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan, C300-4M trim, with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, a seven-speed automatic transmission, and approximately 255 horsepower. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz Cars in the United States. The supplied NHTSA recall records include campaigns concerning emergency-call communication software (21V058000, 22V365000, and 21V072000), the front roof panel on vehicles with a panoramic sunroof (21V197000 and 23V854000), the steering rack on specified rear-wheel-drive variants (18V850000), forward-collision radar software (19V540000), the 12-volt battery mounting bracket (19V586000), front seat-belt retraction (21V032000), LED headlight adjustment (21V509000), the fuel rail and injectors (21V961000), and the rearview-camera display (22V232000). Recall applicability and completion should be verified by the VIN with Mercedes-Benz or NHTSA before purchase, particularly because several campaigns apply only to specific configurations or equipment.
