2018 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE GLE350-4M

The vehicle is listed with a salvage certificate of title, and the auction’s stated primary damage is FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible front-end damage supports this primary-damage classification; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the photos. The front bumper assembly is missing, including the bumper cover, grille, and associated fascia sections. The radiator and front bumper reinforcement are exposed. One front-corner headlamp assembly is also absent, leaving internal mounting areas and wiring visible. The adjacent hood corner has a folded, irregular edge, and the leading edge of the front fender is deformed around the exposed headlamp area. Lower front underbody trim, including the splash shield and fascia-related components, is missing. Detached front-end pieces are visible below the open hood. The matching bumper cover is separated from the vehicle and shows surface scuffing and abrasion marks. The findings document significant visible front-end collision damage. The condition of concealed structural components, cooling-system components, wiring, sensors, and other mechanical systems is not established by these findings and would require a thorough physical inspection before repair or purchase.
