Damage overview

The front end is heavily damaged. The hood is deeply buckled, and the bumper, grille, headlamps and cooling module are off the car, which leaves the front of the engine, hoses and wiring exposed. The steering-wheel airbag appears deployed and the cluster shows several warnings. The rear, both sides and the seats look clean.

The recorded front-end damage is visible: the hood is crushed and the bumper, grille, headlamps and cooling parts are off the car (photos 1, 2, 4, 11). The cluster reads 1,101 miles, which matches the record (photo 10).

Visual observation, not a confirmed fact.

What a buyer or inspector should check

  • Check the frame-rail ends, crash boxes and aprons for bends (photos 1, 11), since the whole front support and cooling module are off.
  • After the cooling parts are refitted, pressure-test the cooling system and recheck the cooling-system warning shown on the cluster (photo 10). Also check the exposed front of the engine and its hoses for damage (photos 1, 11).
  • Inspect the restraint system: the steering-wheel airbag appears deployed (photos 7, 8), the airbag lamp is lit (photo 10), wiring hangs under the driver's side of the dash (photo 7) and the left B-pillar lower trim is off (photo 12). Include the seat-belt pretensioners, and identify the light-colored material near the rear side glass (photo 9).
  • Check the hood hinges, fender mounts, front suspension and wheel alignment on both sides (photos 1, 2, 4).
  • Confirm which parts in the pile (photo 14) belong to this car and can be reused, and which need to be sourced.
  • Get the title and vehicle history report, and confirm the VIN on the door-jamb label (photo 13) matches the paperwork.

  • Frame or unibody damage beyond what is exposed
  • Whether the engine runs, and what triggered the cooling-system warning
  • Electrical, driver-assist sensor and transmission condition
  • Underbody and suspension condition
  • Flood or water exposure
  • Whether the displayed mileage is accurate
