2023 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE AMG GLE53 4MATIC+

The auction records list a Certificate of Salvage and identify the primary damage as FRONT END. Stage 1’s photo review concluded that the visible missing front bumper and grille components support the stated FRONT END damage code; however, the Certificate of Salvage status could not be confirmed from the photographs. The front bumper fascia is missing across the full front width. This exposes the bumper reinforcement, radiator area, mounting brackets, wiring, and lower front components. The central front grille assembly is also absent, leaving the radiator and grille support structure visible. At the rear, the bumper cover and lower rear-corner coverings are missing. The rear bumper reinforcement, brackets, mounting hardware, and other components are exposed. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2023 Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class AMG GLE 53 4MATIC+ SUV with all-wheel drive, a turbocharged 3.0-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and a nine-speed transmission. The vehicle was manufactured in the United States. The provided findings are limited to the missing exterior components and exposed areas; the condition of concealed structural, cooling, electrical, safety, and mechanical components is not established.
