2023 MERCEDES-BENZ E 350 E350

The auction lists the primary damage as **Left Rear**. Stage 1 reports that the visible damage supports this classification, with severe deformation and missing components concentrated around the left rear quarter panel and bumper area. The left rear quarter panel is severely crushed and creased from the outer tail-lamp opening toward the rear wheel arch. Bare metal and distorted panel surfaces are visible. The left rear outer tail-lamp assembly is missing, leaving its mounting cavity and wiring exposed. The rear bumper cover is also absent, exposing the bumper reinforcement, brackets, mounting structures, wiring, and lower rear components. The removed bumper cover and a detached rear lamp assembly are shown separately. A large heat-shield panel is hanging below the left rear bumper and exhaust area. Light linear scuffing is present on the left rear door and lower left side body. The VIN decodes as a 2023 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E350 sedan, manufactured in Germany. It is equipped with a turbocharged 2.0-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine identified as the M264, with a listed output of 255 horsepower. The supplied data also lists standard safety features including forward-collision warning, pedestrian automatic emergency braking, rear automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keep assistance, adaptive driving beams, and a rear visibility system. The drive type and transmission details were not provided. The supplied NHTSA recall records list three campaigns associated with this model and year: two fuel-pump recalls, in which fuel-pump shutdown may cause a loss of drive power, and one blind-spot/exit-warning software recall that may prevent audio and visual warnings from activating. The listed remedies are fuel-pump replacement and a software update, both at no charge. Recall completion should be verified by VIN with Mercedes-Benz before purchase.
