2015 PORSCHE MACAN

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a PUBLIC – SALVAGE TITLE, with FRONT END recorded as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible front-bumper damage supports the FRONT END classification; however, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from the photographs. The documented damage is concentrated in the lower front bumper and corner. The lower trim is broken and partly missing, with open gaps and exposed mounting or internal components. The lower bumper insert is also absent, and the damaged black plastic shows broken edges. These areas will require inspection and likely replacement of the affected bumper trim and related components. The photographs do not establish whether additional damage exists behind the bumper or elsewhere on the vehicle. Two NHTSA safety recalls are listed for this model and year. Recall 20V077000 concerns the fuel-pump service cover, which may cause fuel-pump flange cracking and a possible fuel leak; the remedy involves inspection, protective-film application, and replacement where necessary. Recall 14V470000 applies to certain 2015 Macan vehicles manufactured from March 6 through April 26, 2014, and concerns possible brake-booster damage during installation that could reduce brake assistance. Recall completion and applicability should be verified by the vehicle identification number with Porsche or an authorized dealer before purchase.
