2018 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE 350 GLE350

The auction lists the primary damage as Right Rear. Stage 1 reports that the visible damage supports this classification: a dented right rear quarter panel, scuffing on the right rear bumper, and abrasion on the right rear alloy wheel. The right rear quarter panel, above and forward of the wheel arch, has a moderate inward dent with a pronounced sharp crease and localized deformation near the fuel door and wheel arch. The right rear bumper cover has multiple dark scrape marks, paint transfer, and areas where the white finish is disrupted. The outer lip and spoke edges of the right rear alloy wheel show minor scraping and abrasion. These findings are based on the provided damage assessment; the condition of concealed components, suspension, wheel alignment, and the fuel-door area requires physical inspection. The vehicle decodes as a 2018 Mercedes-Benz GLE350 SUV with a 3.5-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, seven-speed automatic transmission, and rear-wheel/drive-type information not provided in the decode. It was manufactured in the United States. The provided recall records list four Mercedes-Benz recalls applicable to specified 2017–2021 or related GLE model ranges. These include communication-module software issues that may affect the emergency-call system, a possible communication-module deactivation, and a fuel-pump control-unit issue related to water accumulation in the spare-tire wheel well that could lead to engine stalling. The vehicle decodes as gasoline-powered, while the recall description references a diesel fuel-system component, so applicability should be confirmed with an authorized Mercedes-Benz dealer using the VIN. Recall completion status was not provided and should be verified before purchase.
