2024 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE 350 4MATIC

The auction lists the primary damage as “Left Side.” Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this claim: substantial deformation and scuffing are visible on the left rear door. The left rear door outer panel has severe collision damage, consisting of a large inward deformation and multiple sharp creases extending from the upper-middle section toward the lower door edge. Multiple light-colored abrasion marks and areas of damaged surface finish are also present across the deformed area, rated as moderate paint scuffing. The provided findings do not identify damage to any other area or confirm the condition of the door’s internal structure, hinges, glass, lock, or adjacent panels. A physical inspection and functional check are recommended before purchase. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2024 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class SUV, GLE 350 4MATIC, manufactured in the United States. It is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline four-cylinder engine, engine model M264, with all-wheel drive. The decoded data lists standard safety equipment including front and first- and second-row side airbags, electronic stability control, blind-spot monitoring, park assist, rear cross-traffic alert, rear automatic emergency braking, and a rear visibility system. One NHTSA safety recall applies to this model and year: recall 24V207000 concerns a 48-volt ground connection under the passenger seat that may not be properly secured and could overheat, increasing the risk of fire. Mercedes-Benz dealers are to inspect and tighten the connection as necessary at no charge. Recall completion should be verified with Mercedes-Benz or an authorized dealer before purchase.
