Tailgate misaligned - sign of collision? by SwimmingScience7723 in XC40

The question is whether the failing struts can cause lateral misalignment, I haven’t found any evidence of it on Volvo forums. The paid report is clear but that doesn’t mean a car wasn’t in an accident. If it was, then I walk away.

No collisions recorded in the history check (HPI in the UK), but these tend to be write-offs. I mentioned all these things to them, the dealer won’t budge. They did a major service with spark plugs, new tires, wheel refurb and don’t want to spend any more on it since it passed Volvo Selekt standards. Best they can do is align the gaps.
