2024 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC 300 4MATIC SUV

The auction lists the primary damage as **Right Front**. However, the Stage 1 photo review confirms substantial front-end damage but finds that the most extensive visible corner damage is on the **left front side**, including the missing left front fender and damage to the lower left front door. Stage 1 therefore reports that the specific “Right Front” designation is not supported and appears mismatched. The front bumper cover and grille are missing, exposing the bumper reinforcement, cooling components, wiring, and lower front structure. One front headlamp assembly is also absent, leaving its mounting area open; the opposite headlamp remains visible. The removed bumper assembly shows scuffing, broken or displaced lower trim, and deformation of the lower chrome-colored insert. A detached headlamp assembly and front fender panel are shown separately, with exposed mounting and wiring components and surface scuffing. The left front fender is missing, exposing the wheel-well perimeter and internal front-corner components. The adjacent hood edge has an uneven raised contour and irregular panel gap, with a minor scuff on the front-left hood area. The lower left front door has a pronounced horizontal dent, crease, and scuffing. Additional creasing and irregular deformation are visible around the door hinge-side edge and the lower adjacent body metal. A yellow check-engine warning light is illuminated in the instrument cluster. The available findings do not identify the cause of this warning or confirm the operating condition of the engine, cooling system, wiring, restraint systems, steering, suspension, or other components behind the damaged front structure. A comprehensive physical and diagnostic inspection is recommended before repair or purchase decisions. The VIN decodes as a 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class SUV, specifically a GLC 300 4MATIC with all-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine (M254), and 255 horsepower. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz AG in Germany. NHTSA records list recalls associated with this model and year involving the engine-support integral carrier, rear axle differential fasteners, 80-amp fuse boxes, incorrectly repaired fuse boxes, panoramic-sunroof C-pillar protection, steering coupling fasteners, and the driver’s door-lock microswitch. Recall completion and applicability should be verified directly by VIN with Mercedes-Benz or NHTSA before the vehicle is returned to service.
