2015 MERCEDES-BENZ ML ML350 BLUETEC 4-matic

This 2015 Mercedes-Benz ML is listed by the auction with the condition designation “PERMIT NO BRAND – UNFIT” and the primary damage classification “REAR END.” Stage 1 reports that the visible missing rear bumper assembly and exposed rear components support the “REAR END” classification. However, the “PERMIT NO BRAND – UNFIT” designation cannot be confirmed from the available exterior and interior photographs alone. The rear bumper cover, including both outer corner sections, is missing. This exposes the bumper reinforcement area, mounting structures, exhaust components, and wiring. Black wiring and electrical connectors are visibly exposed and hanging near both rear bumper corners, including the left rear mounting area. The condition of the reinforcement, mounting points, exhaust system, wiring, and any damage behind the visible components should be checked through a thorough physical inspection before purchase. Replacement of the missing bumper components and associated hardware may be required. Inside the vehicle, the driver’s seat cushion has a visibly worn and discolored area. No other damage findings were provided. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2015 Mercedes-Benz ML-Class SUV with all-wheel drive, a 3.0-liter six-cylinder diesel engine, and the ML350 BlueTEC 4MATIC trim. The vehicle was manufactured by Mercedes-Benz USA in Vance, Alabama. The VIN decode also identifies front and side airbag locations, seat-belt pretensioners and load limiters, and direct tire-pressure monitoring. Functional testing and inspection of the vehicle’s mechanical, electrical, safety, and drivetrain systems are recommended, as these systems cannot be fully assessed from the provided findings.
