2015 PORSCHE CAYENNE

The vehicle is listed with a salvage title, and the auction identifies the primary damage as FRONT END. Stage 1 reports that the visible missing and damaged front-end components support the auction’s unverified FRONT END damage claim; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The front bumper cover and center/lower fascia are missing across the front of the vehicle, leaving the radiator area and other front-end components exposed. The front-left fender is also absent, exposing the wheel-arch area and components behind it. The front-left wheel-well liner and surrounding wheel-arch trim are missing. A detached white bumper cover shows severe cracking and tearing at the right-side corner, with separated material and exposed mounting areas. A detached white front-fender panel is also shown with exposed mounting holes and separated edge sections. Replacement of the missing and damaged exterior components, along with inspection of the exposed radiator and front-end structures and mounting points, will be required. The findings do not establish the condition of components behind the removed panels. NHTSA recall records for the 2015 Porsche Cayenne include campaign 14V824000, concerning possible incorrect suspension alignment and insufficient torque on certain suspension connections in vehicles manufactured November 26–27, 2014; this campaign applies to specified Cayenne Diesel and Cayenne S vehicles. Campaign 16V169000 covers certain 2011–2016 Cayenne vehicles and concerns a potentially missing brake-pedal pivot-pin circlip, which could allow the brake pedal to dislodge. Recall applicability and completion should be verified by VIN with Porsche before purchase.
