2020 MERCEDES-BENZ GLB 250 GLB250

The auction lists the primary damage as Front End. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim: the front bumper cover, grille, one headlamp assembly, front fender components, and surrounding fascia are absent, leaving internal front-end components exposed. Additional rear bumper-cover damage is also visible. The vehicle has extensive missing exterior and collision-related components at both ends. At the front, the bumper cover, grille, lower fascia, one headlamp assembly, front fender, wheel-arch trim, and related corner panels are missing. The bumper reinforcement, radiator and condenser assemblies, lower air ducting, mounting brackets, wheelhouse, wiring, and other internal support structures are exposed. Loose or dangling wiring is visible in the affected areas. The exposed front reinforcement has dark linear scuff marks and surface dirt. At the rear, the bumper cover and lower corner trim are missing, exposing the rear reinforcement bar, mounting hardware, brackets, wiring, lower body panels, and inner rear-corner components. The findings do not establish the condition of the vehicle’s mechanical systems, cooling system, electrical components, structural alignment, airbags, suspension, or drivetrain. A comprehensive physical inspection and diagnostic assessment will be necessary before repair or operation. The VIN decodes as a 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class GLB 250 SUV with front-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine, an eight-speed automated manual transmission, and left-hand drive. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz AG in Mexico. NHTSA records provided for this vehicle type include recalls involving emergency-call communication software, rearview-camera or MBUX display software, LED headlight adjustment, the gasoline fuel rail and injectors, and a driver’s-door-lock microswitch. The listed remedies include software updates or replacement of affected components, generally at no charge through Mercedes-Benz. Recall applicability and completion should be confirmed by checking this VIN with Mercedes-Benz or NHTSA, particularly for the campaign listed with future notification and VIN-search dates.
