2018 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC 300 GLC300

The 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 is listed by the auction with a Salvage condition and a primary damage classification of Rear. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the Rear classification because the rear bumper cover and both rear tail-lamp assemblies are missing, leaving rear components exposed. Stage 1 also notes that the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed or disproved from exterior photographs alone. The rear bumper cover is absent across the width of the vehicle, exposing the black bumper reinforcement and underlying rear components. Both left and right tail-lamp assemblies are missing, leaving open lamp cavities. Additional rear-fascia components remain absent, with the bumper reinforcement, lower rear structure, and exhaust components visibly exposed. These are severe collision-related losses. The available findings do not establish the condition of the underlying structural, mechanical, electrical, or exhaust systems, so a thorough physical inspection is recommended before purchase. VIN-decoding data identifies the vehicle as a Finland-built Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class SUV with a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder gasoline M274 engine, automatic nine-speed transmission, and 241 horsepower. The drivetrain is not specified in the available decoding data. Official NHTSA records list multiple recalls applicable to 2018 GLC 300 vehicles. These include recalls involving rear-seat-belt latch-plate retention, the driver frontal air-bag inflator and steering-component grounding, panoramic sunroof or roof-panel bonding, emergency-call communication software, passenger air-bag status display, and the color of front LED turn signals. The listed campaigns include 17V627000, 17V715000, 18V177000, 18V208000, 18V610000, 18V683000, 18V838000, 21V058000, 21V072000, 21V197000, 22V365000, and 23V854000. Recall completion should be verified by an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer using the VIN, particularly after the collision-related repairs.
