2017 MERCEDES-BENZ E E300-4M

The vehicle is listed with a salvage/rebuildable certificate of title, and the auction’s primary damage designation is FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end damage supports the FRONT END classification; however, the salvage/rebuildable title status cannot be confirmed from the available photos. The front bumper cover is missing, exposing the bumper reinforcement, radiator area, wiring, and other internal front-end components. The center grille and lower grille/air-intake plastics are missing or broken, with detached and fractured pieces visible around the lower front edge. The front left headlamp assembly is absent, leaving its mounting area and internal components exposed. The front left corner also lacks its outer bumper and fascia components, with exposed brackets, wiring, and broken plastic around the headlamp and wheel-side edge. Additional front-end trim, grille, and air-duct components are detached and lying separately on the ground. The hood has moderate deformation along its leading edge, creating an uneven gap above the exposed front-end components. Overall, the findings indicate substantial collision damage concentrated at the front of the vehicle. Replacement of missing components and inspection of the exposed structure, cooling system, wiring, mounting points, and related mechanical systems will be required before the extent of repairs can be determined.
