2025 MERCEDES-BENZ GLB 250 GLB250

This 2025 Mercedes-Benz GLB 250 (VIN W1N4M4GB9SW400460) is identified as a gasoline-powered SUV with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder M260 engine and an eight-speed automated manual transmission. The vehicle was manufactured in Aguascalientes, Mexico. The auction’s primary-damage designation is “Right Side.” However, Stage 1’s photo review found that the visible damage is concentrated on the left side and does not support the auction’s right-side damage claim. The left rear door has extensive gray surface scraping and paint transfer across the middle and lower sections. The left front door also shows multiple elongated scrapes and paint transfer across its lower and middle areas. Gray scraping and transfer are present on the rear portion of the left front fender near the wheel-arch trim. The left exterior mirror is missing its outer cover, leaving internal housing components and wiring exposed. The lower front bumper has multiple gray scuff marks and paint transfer, along with localized deformation near the lower chrome-colored trim. At the rear, a section of the lower chrome-colored trim on the right side of the bumper is broken or missing, leaving a rectangular opening near the right-side exhaust outlet. NHTSA records list recall campaign 24V780000 for certain 2025 GLB 250 vehicles. The right-side front and rear tires may have sidewall damage that could cause sudden tire-pressure loss; the remedy is inspection and replacement of the tires as necessary, free of charge. Recall campaign 26V481000 is also listed for certain 2020–2026 GLB vehicles. It concerns possible corrosion and failure of the driver’s-door-lock microswitch, which could prevent automatic engagement of the electronic parking brake or Auto-Park function and potentially result in vehicle rollaway. The listed remedy is replacement of the driver’s door lock, free of charge. Recall applicability and completion should be confirmed by VIN with Mercedes-Benz or NHTSA.
