2018 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC 300 GLC300

This 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 is recorded with the auction’s primary damage designation as “Left Side.” The visible evidence supports that designation, with the most significant damage concentrated at the left front bumper and adjacent left front body area. The main damage is severe collision-related damage to the left front bumper. The bumper cover is heavily scraped, deformed, torn, and separated along its lower edge. A large section of bumper material and lower intake trim is missing, leaving an open cavity with exposed internal areas. The lower bumper edge and adjacent black trim are detached and hanging downward. Multiple detached plastic components, including bumper or underbody trim and a wheel-well-liner-like panel, were also recorded on the ground beside the vehicle. The findings do not establish the condition of components behind the bumper, including the cooling system, structural members, sensors, or lighting equipment. Several exterior areas have additional cosmetic damage. Light scuffing and scratches are present on the left front fender, hood, front door, rear door, and lower front door area. The rear bumper cover has multiple light horizontal scratches and surface marks. Colored wires are exposed at the base of the left exterior mirror and require inspection. According to the VIN decode, this is a four-door Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class SUV manufactured in Finland. It has a turbocharged 2.0-liter gasoline four-cylinder M274 engine, an automatic nine-speed transmission, and a listed output of 241 horsepower. The supplied decode does not identify the drivetrain. NHTSA recall records provided for the 2018 GLC 300 include campaigns involving rear-seat-belt latch interference, driver air-bag inflator and grounding concerns, panoramic sunroof or front roof-panel bonding, emergency-call communication software or activation, passenger air-bag status display, and front-turn-signal color on vehicles equipped with LED headlights.
