2020 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 evidence supports this unverified claim: the front bumper, grille, and related fascia components are missing, and the hood is visibly deformed. The front bumper cover, grille, and surrounding front fascia trim are absent, exposing the radiator area, lower front structure, internal components, cross-bracing, mounting hardware, and other front-end components. The hood has multiple creases and localized deformation at the front-right corner. The front-right fascia mounting area also shows exposed mounting points, with broken or missing pieces around the headlamp and bumper region. Sections of the trim around the visible front wheel arch are missing, leaving mounting holes and fasteners exposed. The findings document substantial visible collision damage to the front end. Further physical inspection would be required to assess concealed structural, cooling-system, electrical, suspension, and mechanical damage, as well as the parts and repairs needed for restoration.
