2022 MERCEDES-BENZ E E350

The vehicle is a 2022 Mercedes-Benz E. The auction record lists a SALVAGE CERTIFICATE condition and REAR END as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible severe rear-end body damage supports the REAR END classification; however, the SALVAGE CERTIFICATE status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The rear of the vehicle has extensive collision damage. The trunk lid is severely crushed and folded across the center and right side, with sharp creases, torn edges, and exposed inner sections. The rear bumper cover is severely deformed, cracked, and torn, with missing sections and irregular gaps. The rear quarter panel and adjacent trunk-side area are also heavily crushed and folded, with torn panel edges and exposed components around the rear opening. The rear lighting is damaged on both sides. One tail lamp lens is fractured and displaced, while the opposite tail lamp assembly is absent or destroyed, leaving an exposed opening and visible internal components. The rear windshield is missing, with extensive broken glass fragments remaining around the opening. A thorough inspection and repair estimate should include the rear body structure, internal components, lighting and wiring, glass, bumper system, and any systems potentially affected by the collision.
