2020 MERCEDES-BENZ CLA 250 4MATIC

The auction lists the primary damage as rear damage. Stage 1’s photo-based assessment supports this claim: the rear bumper cover and both rear bumper corners are visibly missing. The rear bumper assembly is severely incomplete. The full-width reinforcement bar is exposed below the trunk lid, while the bumper mounting structures, wiring, electrical connector, and other internal components are visible. The lower central portion of the trunk lid also has a shallow dent and crease below the Mercedes emblem. The provided findings do not establish the condition of the underlying body structure, sensors, exhaust components, trunk-floor area, or electrical systems. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2020 Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class sedan with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, rated at 221 horsepower, paired with a seven-speed automated manual transmission. The vehicle was manufactured in Kecskemét, Hungary. NHTSA records list multiple recalls for this model and year, including recalls involving the emergency-call communication system, rearview-camera or multimedia software, the driver’s airbag module, instrument-cluster illumination, the fuel rail and injectors, and the driver’s door lock. The listed campaigns include 19V685000, 20V089000, 21V058000, 21V072000, 21V354000, 21V961000, 22V232000, and 26V481000. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with Mercedes-Benz or NHTSA before purchase, particularly because the rear damage may have affected rear wiring, camera-related components, or other safety systems. A thorough physical inspection is recommended before repair or road use, including checks of the rear body structure, bumper reinforcement and mounts, trunk-floor area, wiring and connectors, parking or camera systems, airbag and restraint systems, alignment, and any concealed mechanical or electrical damage.
