2023 TOYOTA 4RUNNER TRD offroad Prem

The vehicle is a 2023 Toyota 4Runner TRD Off-Road Premium with a salvage certificate. The auction lists hail as the primary damage claim. However, Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence does not support this claim: the visible hood, rear hatch, and portions of the roof appear largely smooth, without a clearly visible dense pattern of small dents on the upward-facing panels. The documented damage includes missing glass in the right rear quarter-window area, leaving an open aperture with jagged or fragmented edge material. The left exterior side mirror housing remains in place, but its reflective glass is missing and internal components are exposed. Light linear scuffs and pale surface marks are also present on the lower portions of the left front and rear doors and adjacent body panels. The VIN identifies this vehicle as a four-wheel-drive SUV built in Japan by Toyota Motor Corporation at the Tahara Plant. It is equipped with a 4.0-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, a five-speed automatic transmission, and Toyota’s 1GR-FE engine. Factory safety equipment listed by the VIN decoder includes curtain airbags for the first, second, and third rows, front and side airbags, ABS, stability and traction control, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and a rear visibility system. One NHTSA recall is listed for this specific model and year: campaign 23V680000 concerns an incorrect load-carrying-capacity label on certain vehicles distributed by Southeast Toyota. An incorrect label could permit overloading and increase crash risk. The stated remedy is installation of a corrected label at no charge; recall completion should be verified with Toyota or Southeast Toyota using the VIN.
