2012 MERCEDES-BENZ ML ML350 4-MATIC

The 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML is listed in the auction record with a salvage title designation and “SIDE” as the primary damage. The provided photo assessment supports the SIDE damage classification: pronounced deformation, creasing, and scuffing are visible on the rear side body area. The salvage-title status itself cannot be confirmed from the photos. Visible exterior damage includes multiple creases and a pronounced depression in the rear side body panel above and forward of the rear wheel, with adjacent surface scuffing. The rear side door and adjoining lower side area are also deformed, with scraped paint near the lower front portion of the rear wheel opening. The lower rear bumper corner and black trim have a visible gap and partial separation near the rear wheel. At the front, a black lower bumper component is separated from the lower bumper corner, leaving an uneven open gap. Several light scuff marks and areas of rubbed finish are present on the front bumper cover. The interior shows moderate wear to the driver’s seat cushion and outer bolster, including multiple tears and exposed lighter underlying material. The rear seat cushion has light-colored discoloration and surface abrasion. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML-Class ML350 4MATIC SUV with all-wheel drive, a 3.5-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and production in the United States. Mechanical, structural, underbody, electrical, and safety-system conditions are not established by the listed findings and should be checked during a physical inspection.
