2019 PORSCHE MACAN S

The 2019 Porsche Macan is listed in the auction record with a “CERT OF TITLE-SALVAGE” condition and “SIDE” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible left-side door damage supports the auction’s SIDE code; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the photographs. The left front door has a large, irregular dent and crease across the lower and middle sections, with scraped and abraded paint, lighter-colored abrasion, and paint transfer. The left rear door also shows deformation and multiple scraped areas, concentrated near the front edge and lower-middle section. Both doors are assessed as moderate collision damage. An NHTSA recall, campaign 23V443000, covers certain 2019 Porsche Macan vehicles. The issue concerns improperly tightened screws securing the lower rear outboard seat-belt anchors to the seat frame. If an anchor detaches during a crash, the risk of injury may increase. Porsche’s stated remedy is replacement and proper tightening of the anchor screws at no charge. Recall completion should be verified with Porsche using the vehicle identification number.
