2017 MERCEDES-BENZ E E300-4M

The 2017 Mercedes-Benz E is listed with a Certificate of Title and an auction primary damage classification of WATER/FLOOD. This is an unverified auction claim. The available photo review by Stage 1 found that the claim was not supported by the exterior, interior, and dashboard images: no consistent exterior tide line, lower-panel water staining, interior water-line staining, silt or mud residue, mold-like discoloration, or visible corrosion on interior components was observed. The illuminated instrument cluster also showed no widespread visible malfunction indicators. The certificate-of-title status cannot be verified from photographs. The visible damage is primarily cosmetic. The driver’s seat outer lower bolster has moderate cracking, peeling, and an open tear, with lighter-colored material exposed. The front center armrest has a minor localized area of abrasion and peeling surface material. A physical inspection is recommended to verify the vehicle’s title status and to check for any damage or mechanical issues that cannot be confirmed from the available images.
