2018 PORSCHE MACAN Macan GTS

The vehicle is a 2018 Porsche Macan. The auction record identifies it as having a salvage certificate of title, with “UNDERCARRIAGE” listed as the primary damage. This classification is an auction claim. Stage 1 reports that the undercarriage damage cannot be confirmed or ruled out from the available photographs and requires a physical inspection; the salvage-title status is also not independently verifiable from the images. Visible damage includes severe damage to the front bumper lower section and corners. The bumper cover has multiple open gaps and separated sections, with broken or hanging lower-edge trim and exposed areas behind the bumper. A substantial portion of the lower bumper at the visible front corner is cracked or missing, and the lower lip is detached. The lower rear bumper fascia and diffuser area also show severe damage, particularly on the left side when viewed from the rear. Sections are broken or missing, several plastic pieces are detached or hanging, and an open area exposes components behind the fascia. The available findings document exterior bumper damage only. Because an undercarriage claim is recorded, a comprehensive physical inspection of the underside, suspension, steering, drivetrain, exhaust, structural components, and related systems is recommended before purchase. The damaged bumper areas should also be checked for damage to concealed mounting points and components behind the fascia. NHTSA records list the following recalls applicable to 2018 Porsche Macan vehicles: recall 18V318000 for a control-unit failure that may affect safety-related functions, display alerts, drivability, and post-crash functions; recall 21V131000 for a front passenger-seat occupancy sensor mat that may fail to detect a passenger; recall 18V844000 for an optional ski-bag fastening strap; recall 20V077000 for a fuel-pump service-cover issue that may cause fuel leakage; and recall 23V443000 for improperly tightened lower rear outboard seat-belt anchor screws.
