2016 PORSCHE CAYENNE

The 2016 Porsche Cayenne is listed with a Certificate of Salvage and FRONT END as the auction’s primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the FRONT END claim, with multiple front bumper, grille, headlamp, and adjacent plastic components missing or damaged. The Certificate of Salvage status itself could not be confirmed from exterior photographs. The front fascia is extensively incomplete. The front bumper cover, grille, associated trim, and both front-side bumper corners are missing. The front-right headlamp assembly is absent, leaving wiring, brackets, mounting points, and other internal components exposed; the left headlamp remains installed. The front-right wheel-arch liner and adjacent plastic panels are displaced or incomplete, and the front-right fender edge has an irregular exposed area and an open gap at the bumper junction. The lower front air duct and splash/air-management panels are distorted, displaced, or separated. The instrument display shows the warning, “Check front right parking light,” consistent with the missing front-right lighting assembly, although the condition of the related wiring and control systems requires further testing. The findings do not establish the condition of components behind the visible front-end damage, including cooling, structural, electrical, safety, or mechanical systems. A detailed physical inspection and diagnostic scan are recommended before purchase. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2016 Porsche Cayenne SUV with a 3.6-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, manufactured by Porsche in Leipzig, Germany. The decoder lists a direct tire-pressure monitoring system and a gross vehicle weight rating of 6,195 pounds. Two NHTSA safety recalls are listed for this make, model, and year. Recall 16V169000 concerns a potentially missing circlip at the brake-pedal pivot pin, which could allow the brake pedal to dislodge and prevent braking; the remedy involves inspection and installation of the circlip if necessary. Recall 22V656000 concerns missing low-beam headlight adjustment-screw caps, which may result in improperly adjusted headlights; the remedy involves inspection and installation of the caps where required. Recall completion should be verified with Porsche or an authorized dealer using the VIN.
