2015 MERCEDES-BENZ C Base

The 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class is listed by the auction with a primary damage classification of FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible missing and broken front-end components support this classification. The vehicle is also listed with a CERTIFICATE OF TITLE designation; however, Stage 1 notes that this title status cannot be confirmed from the available photos. The front bumper cover and grille are missing, exposing the front reinforcement beam, cooling components, mounting brackets, and lower plastic structures. The lower bumper fascia and associated black trim are also absent or broken, with exposed mounting points and loose or damaged plastic pieces at the front corners. Additional missing components include the lower air-intake and fascia sections, leaving the radiator and front cooling assembly directly visible. A wide, uneven gap is present between the hood’s front edge and the exposed fascia area. The VIN decodes this vehicle as a 2015 Mercedes-Benz C-Class sedan with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a U.S. manufacturing plant in Vance, Alabama. The extent of the front-end damage warrants inspection of the cooling system, reinforcement structure, mounting points, hood alignment, lighting, wiring, sensors, and related mechanical components before repair or operation.
