2018 MERCEDES-BENZ E E 400-4M

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz E is listed with a salvage certificate, and the auction’s primary-damage code is “REAR END.” The visible extensive rear-end body damage supports that primary-damage classification. However, the salvage-certificate status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The vehicle has severe damage across both rear corners and the rear body structure. The left rear quarter panel and wheel arch are extensively crushed, with sharp folds, torn panel edges, and exposed internal components. The left rear passenger door is heavily dented and creased, with displaced outer metal, an irregular gap, and no visible window glass. The left rear tail lamp is displaced, with adjacent trim damaged or missing. The right rear quarter panel and wheel-arch area are also significantly deformed. The rear bumper covers, lower trim, and rear fascia are missing on both sides, exposing internal bumper components, wiring, and lower body areas. The trunk lid is displaced, with irregular gaps, while the rear body panel below it is exposed and damaged. The driver airbag is deployed, and curtain airbags are deployed along the left roof and side-window area. These findings indicate substantial collision-related damage and suggest that structural, restraint-system, electrical, and mechanical inspections will be required before repair or purchase decisions are made. Recall status was not checked.
