2013 PORSCHE CAYENNE

This 2013 Porsche Cayenne is listed in the auction record as “PERMIT NO BRAND - UNFIT,” with “SIDE” recorded as the primary damage classification. These are unverified auction designations. The Stage 1 photo review found no clear significant side-impact damage; the “SIDE” classification is not supported by visible exterior evidence. The photos also do not show evidence of a branded-title condition or an exterior condition that would independently establish the “UNFIT” designation. The visible damage is limited to minor cosmetic marks. A small light-colored paint chip or scuff is present on the upper front bumper below the hood edge. Several light surface scuffs are visible on the rear bumper cover. No other findings were provided. Three NHTSA safety recalls are associated with this model and year. Campaign 16V169000 concerns a possible missing circlip at the brake-pedal pivot, which could allow the pedal to dislodge and prevent braking; the remedy is inspection and installation of a circlip if required. Campaign 13V506000 concerns inaccurate fuel-level and remaining-range displays, with a software update as the remedy. Campaign 22V656000 concerns missing headlight adjustment-screw caps, which may result in incorrect headlight aim; the remedy is inspection and installation of the caps where necessary. The completion status of these recalls for this vehicle should be confirmed with Porsche or through an authorized dealer using the VIN.
