2022 MERCEDES-BENZ GLB 250 4MATIC

This 2022 Mercedes-Benz GLB 250 is listed with a salvage condition and “Left Front” as the auction’s primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports front-end damage involving the vehicle-left front corner, consistent with that classification; additional damage is also visible across the center and opposite front corner. The front end has severe collision damage. Both headlamp assemblies are missing, leaving open cavities at the front corners. The front bumper cover is broken and separated, with missing sections and exposed components, particularly on the vehicle-left side. The grille and surrounding horizontal trim are displaced, with broken or missing sections around the center and vehicle-left side. The hood’s front edge is bent and irregular, with an uneven gap above the grille and scuffed paint. The vehicle-left front corner has broken outer panels and open gaps around the absent headlamp, exposing internal components. The forward edge of the vehicle-left front fender is broken and displaced, and the front fascia is separated from adjacent panels. Across the front end, the hood, grille, and bumper show pronounced separation and irregular gaps. Mechanical, structural, lighting, safety-system, and cooling-system operation should be thoroughly inspected before repair or purchase. According to the VIN decode, this is a GLB-Class SUV with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, and an eight-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz in Mexico. One NHTSA recall is listed under campaign 26V481000, concerning the driver’s door-lock microswitch. The switch may corrode and fail to detect an open door, potentially preventing the electronic parking brake or Auto-Park feature from engaging automatically and creating a rollaway risk. Mercedes-Benz is expected to replace the driver’s door lock free of charge. The recall notice states that owner letters are expected on September 18, 2026, and VIN-specific search availability on NHTSA.gov is expected beginning July 31, 2026. Recall completion should be confirmed with Mercedes-Benz or NHTSA before purchase.
