2020 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE GLE350

The vehicle is listed with a salvage certificate of title, and the auction’s primary-damage designation is FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible extensive front-end damage supports the stated front-end claim; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The front of the vehicle has severe collision damage. The hood is extensively crumpled, with deep creasing, raised sections, sharp folds, and torn paint, mainly on the left and center portions. The front bumper cover, grille, and headlamp assemblies are missing, exposing the radiator, wiring, brackets, and other front-end components. The lower front support and attached brackets are visibly bent, crushed, and displaced. Additional moderate damage is present around the front fender and adjacent side panel, including creasing, deformation, and a folded edge near the hood and fender junction. The running board below the front door is bent downward and separated from the body near its front section. The rear also shows significant damage. The left rear quarter panel has scraped paint, gouging, and deformation near the bumper junction. The rear bumper cover has extensive scuffing, tearing, cracking, and displaced lower sections on both sides. Lower rear bumper trim and surrounding cover components are missing, exposing underlying structure and exhaust components. Loose wiring and detached components are hanging below the rear bumper area. Overall, the findings indicate substantial collision damage affecting both the front and rear of the vehicle, with multiple missing body components and exposed or displaced structural and mechanical-area components. Thorough structural, electrical, cooling-system, suspension, and mechanical inspection would be required before repair or purchase.
