2014 MERCEDES-BENZ GLK GLK350

The auction record lists a salvage certificate of title and identifies the primary damage as REAR END. Stage 1 reports that the visible severe rear-end damage supports the stated REAR END damage code; however, the salvage certificate status cannot be confirmed from the photos. The rear liftgate window glass is missing, leaving the entire opening exposed. The liftgate is severely crushed and creased across the center and right side, including the emblem, license-plate area, and lower edge. The right rear quarter area and adjacent tailgate edge are heavily deformed, with internal components exposed. The rear bumper cover is severely cracked, displaced, and partially detached, particularly on the right side. The lower bumper assembly is also broken and displaced, while the chrome-colored trim is detached and hanging away from the bumper. Gaps in the rear bodywork expose components behind the bumper. Additional visible issues include peeling red paint or clear coating along the front edge of the hood, with lighter-colored areas exposed beneath. Both front headlamp lenses appear cloudy or hazy. The extent of the rear structural and body-panel deformation, along with the missing window glass and displaced bumper components, indicates that a thorough physical inspection will be required to assess hidden damage, alignment, glass replacement, water exposure, and the condition of the rear systems before purchase.
