2012 PORSCHE CAYENNE S

The vehicle is a 2012 Porsche Cayenne with a salvage title designation. The auction’s reported primary damage is “rear end.” Stage 1’s photo-based assessment states that the visible deformation around the rear liftgate license-plate recess supports this damage classification; no other major rear-end damage was clearly visible in the provided photos. The outer rear liftgate panel has a broad, moderate depression with multiple creases and irregular deformation centered around the license-plate recess and extending toward the right side. The available findings identify no additional damage. Recall records for this make, model, and year include a brake-pedal pivot-pin circlip issue that could allow the brake pedal to dislodge, a headlamp-locking issue that could allow a headlight to detach, and a later headlight-adjustment-cap issue that could result in improper beam alignment. A separate turbocharger recall applies specifically to 2012 Cayenne Turbo vehicles. Recall applicability and completion should be verified by VIN with Porsche or an authorized dealer before purchase.
