2026 TOYOTA TUNDRA

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a salvage condition with lien papers and identifies the front end as the primary damage area. The visible missing, detached, and exposed front-end components support the unverified front-end damage classification. The lien-papers salvage designation is a paperwork status and cannot be confirmed or contradicted from exterior photographs. The front bumper cover and grille assembly are missing, exposing the reinforcement beam, radiator and other cooling components, brackets, supports, and wiring. Several electrical wires and connectors are exposed or disconnected across the front opening, with wiring hanging below the bumper reinforcement. A lower fascia component at the left front corner is detached and hanging away from the vehicle. Remaining bumper material in that area has scuffing, broken edges, and an irregular opening. The exposed metal bumper reinforcement has extensive scrape marks and abrasion. Additional lower front-end plastic components are detached below the left side of the bumper area. A small horizontal light-colored scuff is visible on the lower left portion of the tailgate. No other damage findings were provided. According to the VIN decode, this is a 2026 Toyota Tundra pickup with 4WD, a 3.4-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine, and a 10-speed automatic transmission. The vehicle was manufactured by Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Texas, Inc. in the United States. The decoded safety equipment includes standard ABS, electronic stability control, traction control, front and side airbags, curtain airbags for the first and second rows, forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, pedestrian automatic emergency braking, and a rear visibility system. One NHTSA recall is listed for this 2026 Tundra: campaign 26V433000 concerns an incorrect load-carrying-capacity modification label on one vehicle distributed by Southeast Toyota Distributors. The incorrect label may lead to improper loading and increase crash risk. The stated remedy is replacement of the label at no charge; owner notification was expected to be mailed on September 4, 2026. Recall completion should be verified for this vehicle. The extent of the visible front-end damage indicates that replacement of multiple exterior and lower fascia components, repair or replacement of wiring and brackets, and inspection of the cooling system, reinforcement structure, sensors, lighting, and related mechanical and safety systems will be required. A complete physical inspection and functional testing are recommended before purchase.
