2019 MERCEDES-BENZ C 300 C300

The auction lists the primary damage as **Left Side**. Stage 1 reports that visible evidence supports this claim, citing extensive abrasion, paint loss, panel deformation, and a visible left-side curtain airbag. The 2019 Mercedes-Benz C 300 has extensive collision damage along the left side. The left front bumper corner is heavily scraped and deformed, with an irregular opening in the lower section. The left front fender has severe deformation around the wheel arch, significant paint loss, and multiple scrape marks. The left front and rear doors show elongated gray scuffs, paint loss, and surface damage across their lower and central areas. The left rear quarter panel has a large dent above and forward of the wheel arch, with extensive scraped paint around the wheel opening. The left rear bumper corner is scraped and has areas of paint loss. The left rocker panel and side skirt also show extensive abrasion and paint loss. The left front wheel rim has minor scuffing and finish loss. A turquoise side-curtain airbag is visibly hanging from the roof rail above the left-side doors. The vehicle will require restraint-system inspection and likely airbag-related repairs, in addition to body-panel, bumper, paint, wheel, and possible underlying structural or suspension checks. The provided findings do not confirm the condition of the engine, transmission, cooling system, steering, suspension, brakes, electrical systems, or alignment.
