Analysis report

This 2025 Hyundai Kona SEL carries a salvage title following a total loss declaration and collision damage report in July 2026. While the vehicle has been maintained with four service records including regular oil changes at Massey Hyundai, it was involved in an accident resulting in rear damage and structural concerns that led to its insurance write-off. The vehicle transitioned through two owners across Maryland and West Virginia before being issued a salvage certificate. Reviewing the full report is essential before buying, bidding on, or financing this vehicle to understand how the specific collision details and title status impact its current value and safety.

AI Analysis
Get an opinion: ChatGPT Google AI
Expert Conclusion 6/10
Repair Complexity: High
Risk of Hidden Damage: Moderate

The primary concern is whether the quarter panel and tailgate are structurally sound. The high repair estimate suggests that several components (hatch, bumper, glass, and potentially a quarter panel) must be replaced. Because it's an insurance-sold vehicle with low miles, the mechanical condition should be excellent.

Advantages
Insuranceer seller provides high confidence in documentation.
Very low mileage (15,136 mi) suggests a relatively new vehicle with less mechanical wear.
Modern interior and technology features.
Disadvantages
Rear impact was severe enough to buckle the tailgate/quarter panel area.
Repair costs are high relative to market value (Estimate: $29,880 vs Market: $23,916).
Potential for hidden structural issues in the rear frame rail due to the force of impact.
Proceed with Caution

The car is a high-quality unit due to its low mileage and 'Insurance' status. However, the repair cost exceeds the market value by approximately $5k, making it a project for those who can source parts cheaply or have in-house repair capabilities. Ensure that the rear frame rails are not buckled before proceeding.

Airbags: Not Visible Glass: Intact
Damage
Moderate Rear Bumper — The rear bumper cover is heavily damaged, torn, and partially detached from the mounting points. It requires full replacement.
Severe Rear Hatch / Tailgate — The tailgate shows significant structural deformation/buckling. The latching mechanism and hinges are likely compromised due to the impact force.
Moderate Rear Glass / Window — The rear window is completely shattered/shattered. Replacement of the glass and potentially the surrounding trim is required.
Severe Left Rear Quarter Panel — The quarter panel shows signs of buckling near the hatch interface. Since this is a structural body component, it may require replacement rather than repair.
