2017 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC 300 GLC300

The auction lists the vehicle’s primary damage as “Front End.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim, citing damaged and missing front grille components, front bumper damage, and a cracked windshield. The windshield has multiple prominent fracture lines and damaged areas across the upper passenger-side section. The front grille is missing its Mercedes-Benz emblem, with broken or missing sections and exposed components behind it. The grille bars and surrounding trim are displaced and damaged, particularly around the center and left-side areas. The front bumper cover shows multiple scuffs, scratches, disturbed surface finish, damaged edges, and an open gap near the grille. A detached white trim piece is also protruding near the left side of the grille. The instrument cluster displays “Collision Prevention Assist Plus Inoperative.” The cluster also shows illuminated ABS, stability-control, parking-brake, and check-engine indicators. The underlying cause of these warnings is not established by the available findings and requires diagnostic testing and physical inspection. These systems should be checked carefully before purchase or road use. The VIN identifies this vehicle as a 2017 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class GLC300 SUV, built in Germany. It is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder gasoline engine and a nine-speed automatic transmission. Factory safety and driver-assistance equipment listed by the VIN decoder includes ABS, electronic stability control, traction control, forward-collision warning, dynamic brake support, and a standard rear-visibility system; several additional driver-assistance features are listed as optional. The vehicle should undergo a complete inspection of the front structure, grille and bumper mounting points, windshield, wiring, sensors, braking and stability-control systems, and engine fault codes. Repair costs may include body and trim replacement, windshield replacement, sensor or system diagnosis, and possible calibration.
