2017 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC 300 COUPE 4MATIC

The vehicle is listed with a salvage title and the auction identifies the right side as the primary damage area. Stage 1 reports that the visible right-side deformation and detached trim support the auction’s “Right Side” damage claim; however, the salvage title status cannot be confirmed from photographs alone. Visible damage is concentrated on the right rear side. The lower and middle sections of the right rear door have multiple pronounced dents, creases, and scraped paint. The adjacent right rear quarter panel, including the area forward of and around the wheel arch, is inwardly deformed with additional creasing and paint damage. The black trim along the right rocker panel and running-board area is separated from the body, with exposed mounting openings. A detached trim piece is visible beside the vehicle. The right rear wheel-arch molding is also pulled away from the body, with a separated section and exposed light-colored backing or mounting material. In addition, a broad gap is visible across the upper rear hatch below the rear window where a continuous exterior trim or spoiler component would normally be installed. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class GLC300-4M coupe-style multipurpose vehicle, built in Germany. It is equipped with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, a nine-speed automatic transmission, and left-hand drive. The decoded safety equipment includes front and first- and second-row side airbags, electronic stability control, traction control, forward collision warning, rear visibility equipment, and direct tire-pressure monitoring. The documented findings are limited to visible exterior damage. The condition of the underlying body structure, door operation, wheel-arch area, rocker panel, running-board mounts, mechanical systems, restraint systems, and any components behind the damaged panels requires physical inspection.
