2017 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC 300 COUPE 4MATIC

The auction record lists the vehicle condition as “Clear” and identifies the primary damage as “Right Front.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence contradicts the “Clear” condition claim, with substantial collision damage visible at the front bumper, grille, hood edge, and adjacent trim. Stage 1 also reports that the damage is concentrated at the right front corner, supporting the stated primary-damage location. The right front bumper cover is severely cracked and separated from the vehicle. Its lower corner hangs outward and downward, with extensive abrasion and torn or fractured plastic. The chrome-colored lower bumper trim is distorted, cracked, and detached. The right side of the grille and adjoining black trim have cracked and broken sections with visible separation and gaps. The bumper cover, grille edge, and adjacent front trim are not properly joined at the right front corner. The leading edge of the hood near the right headlamp has gouges, chipped paint, and an irregular damaged edge. The visible findings are concentrated at the front right corner; the provided findings do not establish the condition of components behind or beneath the damaged exterior. An amber check-engine warning light is illuminated on the instrument cluster. The underlying cause cannot be determined from the available findings, so diagnostic testing is recommended before purchase or repair planning. The VIN decode identifies this vehicle as a 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class coupe, trim designation GLC300-4M, with a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline four-cylinder M274 engine and a nine-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle is listed as manufactured in Bremen, Germany. Further physical inspection and electronic diagnostics are recommended to assess the full extent of the collision damage and determine the cause of the check-engine warning.
