The three main brothers are implied to have been abandoned by their parents at some point. Depending on the saga continuity it differs but still.

There is no depictions of children being abused, but there is portrayal of adults being abused by their father.

No, but the film does use real animal remains as props and set dressing.

one of the opening scenes shows a dead, roadkill armadillo. some blood. a hitchhiker shows the main characters a gory picture of dead livestock from a slaughterhouse, accompanied by a gross description. tons of weird roadkill/taxidermy sculptures and furniture made from animal bones, feathers, skulls, some human bones/skulls too.

No one breaks a bone, it's worth noting there is a lot of unsettling bone-related imagery in the movie however.

Not clowns, but the main slashers likes to wear a Pretty Woman mask that could be seen as kinda like a clown (White face and red lips) but i think it's a stretch.

Hitchhiker carries a straight razor. Cut a man on the arm with it… and himself. In the finale slashes a girl repeatedly on the back with it.

There are no trans characters, however Leatherface's crossdrrsssing is a transphobic horror trope.

there is a character who uses a wheelchair and his friends are not very accommodating. he's seen struggling to get around hard to navigate terrain. one character wonders aloud how he was ever able to make it down a particularly steep hill when he was a kid. in another scene, he falls out of his wheelchair and rolls down a hill.
another character might be developmentally challenged and is often called a "fool" and a "nitwit"

Not a sad ending in the context of slasher movies, definitely not a traditionally happy ending either.
