2021 MERCEDES-BENZ GLC 300 SUV

The auction lists the primary damage as “Left Side.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim, with substantial damage concentrated at the front left side. The front left fender and front left door are missing. The detached door, with its side mirror still attached, is visibly crushed and heavily creased, while the detached fender has bends, creases, and damaged mounting edges. The front left door hinge-pillar area shows creasing and irregular deformation. The front left wheelhouse liner and associated trim are also missing, exposing inner wheelhouse components. Additional exterior and underbody trim pieces are detached and include broken or fractured mounting sections. A side-curtain airbag is visibly deployed along the upper left side of the passenger compartment. Based on the supplied findings, this vehicle requires substantial collision repair. The condition of concealed structural components, suspension, steering, wiring, sensors, doors, airbags, seat-belt systems, and other mechanical components cannot be established from these findings and should be assessed through a detailed physical inspection and diagnostic scan before purchase. The VIN identifies the vehicle as a 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class GLC 300 SUV, manufactured by Mercedes-Benz AG in Finland. It is equipped with a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder gasoline M264 engine, turbocharging, and a nine-speed automatic transmission. The decoded data identifies left-hand drive, five seats, and standard systems including ABS, electronic stability control, traction control, forward-collision warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, rear visibility, and parking assistance. NHTSA records list recalls applicable to this vehicle involving the fuel pump, communication-module software and emergency-call functionality, the multimedia system and rearview-camera display, headlight adjustment, and side-impact crash sensors. Recall completion should be confirmed with Mercedes-Benz or an authorized dealer, particularly because the vehicle has sustained collision damage and has a deployed curtain airbag.
