2016 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE GLE350

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz GLE is listed with a salvage certificate of title. The auction’s primary-damage classification is “SIDE,” which is an unverified auction designation. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports this classification: both the left front and left rear doors show extensive impact deformation and surface damage. The salvage-title status cannot be confirmed or contradicted from the photographs. The left front and left rear door panels are severely crushed and heavily deformed across their lower and middle sections. The damage includes deep irregular creases, inward deformation, extensive scraping and paint loss, white transfer marks, exposed lighter-colored material, and torn-looking areas. The findings are limited to visible exterior damage; further inspection would be required to assess the doors’ operation, structural components, adjacent bodywork, and any mechanical or safety-system effects.
