2021 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE GLE350

The 2021 Mercedes-Benz GLE is listed with an auction condition of “CERTIFICATE OF TITLE” and a primary damage classification of “REAR END.” Stage 1 reports that the visible extensive rear-end damage supports the stated REAR END classification; however, the CERTIFICATE OF TITLE status cannot be confirmed from the photos. The rear of the vehicle has severe collision damage. The liftgate outer panel is extensively creased and crushed across the lower and central sections, and the rear liftgate window glass is missing, leaving the opening exposed. The rear bumper cover and both left and right tail-lamp assemblies are also absent. The rear body panel and both rear quarter-panel corners show buckling, creasing, displaced edges, and exposed inner components. Missing exterior parts at both rear corners have left mounting components, inner panels, and wiring exposed. The extent of the visible damage indicates that substantial repair and replacement work will be required. A thorough physical inspection should assess any damage to concealed structural, electrical, or other components before purchase.
