2016 MERCEDES-BENZ E E350-4M

The auction record lists an MV-907A salvage certificate and identifies the primary damage as “FRONT END.” Stage 1 reports that the visible extensive damage at the left front corner and front side supports the stated FRONT END primary-damage code; however, the salvage certificate status itself cannot be verified from photographs. The most severe damage is concentrated on the left front corner. The left front fender is heavily crushed and torn, with sections of the outer panel missing and the wheel-arch area open around the front wheel. The left front bumper cover is torn, cracked, and displaced, with a large separated section and components exposed behind it. The left front corner of the hood has a sharp crease, a raised edge, and an uneven gap next to the damaged fender. The left exterior mirror assembly is missing, leaving mounting components and wiring exposed. The left front door has multiple dents and creases, along with extensive white scraping and paint transfer. The left rear door has a broad dent, several creases, and horizontal scratches. Scratches, paint transfer, and localized deformation are also visible on the left rear quarter panel near the wheel arch. A minor light-colored scuff is present on the right rear bumper corner. According to the provided VIN decoding, this is a 2016 Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan, specifically an E350-4M, with all-wheel drive, a 3.5-liter gasoline V6 engine, and German manufacture. The vehicle is equipped with front-row driver and passenger airbags, side airbags for the first and second rows, and seat-belt pretensioners and load limiters on the outboard seating positions. The visible damage warrants a thorough inspection of the front structure, suspension, steering, wheel and tire area, lighting, wiring, restraint systems, and mechanical components before repair or purchase. A complete assessment will require an in-person inspection after the damaged exterior panels and bumper components are removed.
