2020 MERCEDES-BENZ GLE GLE350-4M

The vehicle is listed with a salvage certificate indicating more than 75% damage, with “FRONT END” recorded as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the unverified front-end damage claim. However, the stated damage threshold of more than 75% cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs alone. The vehicle shows extensive severe front-end collision damage. The hood is deeply crushed, creased, folded, and torn, with displaced edges. Large portions of the front bumper, lower trim, grille, and surrounding fascia are missing, torn, detached, or hanging. The radiator and condenser area, cooling modules, brackets, shrouds, and adjacent components appear bent, crushed, displaced, and partially detached. Visible front support members and cross-components are deformed, with broken mounting areas and exposed wiring. Both front corners are heavily damaged: the left front fender is deeply creased and torn around the wheel arch, with missing sections and exposed internal components, while the right front fender and front corner have torn and displaced panels around the headlamp and wheel-arch area. Multiple lower front-end panels, wiring, trim pieces, and other components are loose, detached, or hanging. The windshield has multiple spiderweb cracks and fractured areas, particularly across the upper and driver-side portions. The driver steering-wheel airbag and curtain airbags are deployed. A red airbag warning indicator is illuminated on the instrument display, indicating that the restraint system requires inspection and repair. The available information does not include factory build data or a recall check; recall status is therefore unknown. A complete inspection should include the structural front end, cooling system, wiring, restraint system, steering and suspension components, and any mechanical or electrical damage not visible in the supplied findings.
