2020 MERCEDES-BENZ GLB GLB250-4M

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a salvage title and identifies the primary damage as FRONT END. The visible front-end damage supports the auction’s FRONT END primary-damage code. However, salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs. The 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB has severe damage concentrated across the front-left and center areas. The hood is heavily buckled and raised, with an uneven leading edge and wide gaps above the grille and headlamp area. The front bumper and lower fascia are cracked, torn, separated, and missing sections, with exposed wiring and internal components. The driver-side front fender and wheel-arch area are deformed and missing exterior sections, exposing inner mounting areas. The driver-side headlamp assembly is broken, with missing housing sections and exposed internal components. The grille and surrounding trim are damaged, with broken or displaced pieces, loose wiring, and the Mercedes emblem missing. Additional plastic panels and mounting components along the front edge of the engine bay are broken, displaced, or missing. Multiple airbags are visibly deployed. This includes the driver steering-wheel airbag, the lower dashboard airbag, and additional airbag fabric near the passenger-side roof and windshield pillar. Curtain airbags are also deployed along the left roof edge and in the right-side rear roof and pillar area. The restraint system will require comprehensive inspection and repair, including the airbags, related sensors, pretensioners, wiring, and control modules. According to the VIN decode, this is a left-hand-drive 2020 Mercedes-Benz GLB-Class GLB250-4M SUV with all-wheel drive, a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and an eight-speed automated manual transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz in Mexico. The decoded equipment includes standard ABS, electronic stability control, traction control, adaptive cruise control, pedestrian automatic emergency braking, and a rear visibility system; the damaged condition means these systems should not be assumed operational. The findings document substantial collision damage and deployed safety restraints. The extent of possible damage to structural components, cooling or mechanical systems, suspension, steering, electrical systems, and driver-assistance components is not established by the provided findings and should be verified through a complete physical inspection before purchase.
