2019 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC 300 GLC300

The auction lists the primary damage as **Front End**. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim, with damage clearly visible at the front grille, hood edge, and bumper. The central grille assembly is missing, exposing the radiator area behind the opening. Surrounding grille trim and lower mounting components appear broken or displaced. The front edge of the hood has a pronounced central dent and crease below the Mercedes emblem. The upper and center front bumper cover shows abrasion, creasing, and localized deformation, while the chrome trim has multiple scrape marks and an uneven center section. These findings indicate collision damage concentrated at the front of the vehicle. The condition of concealed components, cooling-system parts, sensors, structural elements, and mechanical systems is not established by the supplied findings and should be checked during a physical inspection. The VIN decodes this vehicle as a 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class GLC300 SUV with rear-wheel drive, a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline four-cylinder engine, and a nine-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured in Finland. Official NHTSA recall records identify several campaigns applicable to this model and year.
