2024 MERCEDES-BENZ GLA 250 4MATIC

The vehicle is a 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLA 250 listed with a salvage condition. Stage 1 reports that the visible photos do not show identifiable substantial collision damage; however, the salvage status and the auction’s unspecified primary-damage classification could not be confirmed from the visible condition. The only documented physical damage is minor cosmetic wear: several light, linear surface scuffs on the glossy black lower front-bumper trim adjacent to the fog lamp. No other damage findings were provided. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a Mercedes-Benz GLA-Class GLA 250 4MATIC with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, and an eight-speed automated manual transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz AG in Rastatt, Germany. Two NHTSA recalls are listed for the 2024 GLA range. Recall 25V511000 concerns potentially missing headlight-aim markings, which may result in incorrectly aimed headlights; the remedy is inspection and replacement of the headlights as necessary. Recall 26V481000 concerns possible corrosion of the driver’s door-lock microswitch, which could prevent automatic engagement of the electronic parking brake or Auto-Park feature and create a rollaway risk; the stated remedy is replacement of the driver’s door lock. Recall applicability and completion should be verified by VIN with Mercedes-Benz or NHTSA before purchase.
