Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle Program FAQ

What Is a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle?

A Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is a manufacturer-backed certified used car that meets strict OEM age and mileage requirements. These vehicles must pass a manufacturer inspection that can include more than 100 inspection points before receiving certification.

Do All Dealerships Offer Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles?

Manufacturer Certified Pre-Owned vehicles are typically sold through franchised dealerships representing that specific automotive brand.

How Is a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle Different From a Standard Pre-Owned Vehicle?

To provide our customers with peace of mind, our Certified Pre-Owned vehicles must meet manufacturer certification standards and pass a thorough inspection. Standard pre-owned vehicles are also inspected to ensure they are high-quality and ready to meet your needs, but their inspections are not as in-depth as CPO inspections.
