2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E 400 4MATIC

The vehicle is listed by the auction as Salvage, with “Left Side” recorded as the primary damage. However, Stage 1 reports that the provided photos do not show substantial visible collision damage on the left side; only minor surface marks are visible, so the Left Side damage claim is not supported by the exterior evidence. Stage 1 also states that the Salvage designation cannot be confirmed from the visible photos alone. The documented visible damage is limited to minor cosmetic issues. Several light horizontal scuff marks are visible on the central rear trunk lid around and below the emblem. A small scraped or chipped area is present on the lower side skirt immediately behind the front wheel, and a small light-colored paint mark or chip is visible on the lower-middle section of an outer door panel. No other findings were provided. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2018 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E 400-4M convertible/cabriolet, built in Germany. It is equipped with a turbocharged 3.0-liter M276 gasoline V6 rated at 329 horsepower and paired with a nine-speed automatic transmission. The decoded body configuration has two doors. Official recall records supplied for this model year include campaigns concerning the emergency-call communication module software (21V058000 and 21V072000), tire markings and strength requirements on certain 2018 E 400 Cabriolet and Coupe vehicles (25V023000), front-seatback locking on certain E 400 Cabriolet and Coupe vehicles (19V130000), a steering-rack locknut on certain E 400 Cabriolet vehicles (18V850000), and rearview-camera software (22V232000). The supplied records also include other E 400 Coupe-specific seat and steering campaigns. Recall applicability and completion should be confirmed with Mercedes-Benz using the full VIN, as the records do not establish whether any particular repair has been completed.
