Parameter	Details
Based on	91 similar vehicles sold at auction from 12/04/2025 to 06/02/2026 with a verified Run & Drive status.
How it works	We exclude outliers — fully burned-out vehicles, flood-damaged stripped shells, and lightly damaged near-retail units — so the estimate reflects what buyers actually pay for comparable salvage cars.
Not included	Auction fees, shipping, and taxes. This is the winning bid amount only.

Type	Description
ACTUAL	The odometer reading is believed to be the true and actual mileage of the lot.
EXEMPT	By Federal Law, no odometer code is required to be displayed for this lot.
NOT ACTUAL	The odometer reading does not correctly reflect the mileage of the lot or it cannot be known.
EXCEEDS MECHANICAL LIMITS	The true mileage of the lot cannot be expressed because it has exceeded the capacity of the odometer to measure it.

What It Means	Facts and Risks
Description	Fact: Damage documented to the entire left side of the vehicle — fenders, doors, rockers, pillars. Causes: side collision, glancing blow, rollover to left side.
What to Check in Photos	Carefully inspect entire left side: • All doors deformation • Rocker and pillar condition • Gaps between doors, fenders, panels • Wheel well damage • Door opening geometry • Side glass condition • Signs of side airbag and curtain deployment Important: Side impacts often affect pillars and rockers — these are structural elements.
Damage Levels	Light: glancing blow without structural damage — door, fender replacement, cosmetic repair. Medium: door, fender, rocker deformation — parts replacement, possible rocker straightening. Critical: pillar, rocker damage, rollover — structural defects, requires frame rack restoration. Airbags: With side impact along entire length — high risk of side airbag and curtain deployment — SRS system replacement required.
Critical Risks	Structural Damage: Side impact along entire length often affects rockers and pillars. Safety: Side pillars are critical for rollover protection. Repair Complexity: Restoring entire side requires frame rack work.
Expert Recommendations	⚠️ Elevated risk: side impacts are often structural. ✓ Study all available photos: gaps, deformations, rocker and pillar condition. ✓ Check VIN report: repair history and airbag deployment. ✓ Assess Run & Drive status: if vehicle runs — that's a good sign.

What It Means	Facts and Risks
Description	Damage documented to the right rear corner — rear right door, rear fender, rear bumper on right, rear right light. Causes: side collision, parking impact, accident involving rear right corner.
What to Check in Photos	Carefully inspect right rear section: • Door, fender deformation • Gaps between fender and door • Trunk lid gaps • Light, bumper damage • Rear right pillar condition • Wheel well • Signs of side airbag deployment Important: Determine if rear body structure is affected.
Damage Levels	Light: scratches and dents on visible panels — body repair. Medium: door, fender deformation — parts replacement. Often requires right rear quarter panel straightening. Serious: rear pillar, frame rail, trunk floor, rear trunk panel damage — structural defects. May require right rear quarter replacement, floor and rear panel repair, interior trim and plastic replacement. Airbags: With side impact to rear section, risk of side airbag and curtain deployment — SRS system replacement required.
Expert Recommendations	✓ Assess scale: cosmetic vs structural damage. ✓ Study gaps: between fender and door, trunk lid — signs of displacement. ✓ Consider hidden damage: often requires right rear quarter, floor and rear trunk panel repair. ✓ Check VIN report: repair history helps assess scale.

Status	Facts and Risks
Intact (Intact)	Fact: Visually, airbag installation points (steering wheel, dashboard, trim) appear intact. No signs of deployment detected during external inspection. Risk: The inspector does not disassemble the interior. An airbag might be missing (cut out) or replaced with a dummy/resistor under an intact panel.
Deployed (Deployed)	Fact: Deployment of one or more airbags has been recorded. Risk: Carefully study interior photos to identify which specific airbags deployed (steering wheel, curtains, dash). We recommend making your own repair estimate based on visible damage.
Not Verified (Not Verified / Missing)	Fact: Inspector could not access the interior (vehicle locked/no keys) or airbags are dismantled. Risk: Maximum uncertainty. When budgeting, assume the worst-case scenario — complete absence of the safety system.

Factory Equipment & Specs 3KPFL4A78HE044576

Features Specs

Metric	Description
ACV (Actual Cash Value)	The estimated market value of the vehicle in the U.S. at the time it was written off by the insurance company. Use: Helps assess the real value of the car before damage.
ERC (Estimated Repair Cost)	The insurer's preliminary estimate of repair costs for the U.S. market. Use: A general indicator for budgeting restoration costs.

Type	Description & Risks
Insurance Company	The most reliable seller type. Vehicles are sold after an insurance claim payout. Usually sold "as is" — without hidden repairs or defect masking before being listed on the insurance auto auction.
Dealer (Reseller)	Sold by an intermediary. Warning: High risk of poor-quality pre-sale repairs (cosmetic cover-ups) to conceal actual damage. An independent inspection is mandatory.
Rental Company	Vehicles from rental fleets. Often repaired at the company's expense (Self-Insured) without being reported to databases. Risk: History reports may show "No Accidents" and a Clean Title, while hiding actual repairs. The price is higher, but the history may be incomplete. Inspection is required.
Not-Insurance (Bank / Private / Other)	Banks, leasing companies, or private parties (Dealer / Reseller). Damage history may not be obvious. A detailed check is recommended; we do not recommend buying without an inspection.

Rate	Coverage
1%	Covers total loss only during transportation. Any new damage that occurs in transit is not covered.
2.5%	Covers total loss and new damage that occurs from the moment the vehicle is accepted at the U.S. warehouse until it arrives at the port of discharge. Deductible: USD 200. Compensation is calculated based on the average market cost of repairs and replacement parts (new or used, depending on the most economically reasonable option). Official dealer pricing is not used.
