A CPO car, pickup truck, SUV, or minivan is a used car, pickup truck, SUV, or minivan that has a warranty like a brand-new car. In fact, in some rare instances, a CPO car, truck, SUV, or minivan could have a longer warranty than when the car was brand-new. Yet, some dealerships may offer cars, trucks, SUVs, and minivans that they ‘certify’, but it can just be a play on words. The dealer could offer a certification process on their pre-owned vehicles, but it’s not quite the same. A true Certified Pre-Owned car undergoes a strict and specific inspection process, supplies a new car experience (without the brand-new car price), and has bonuses like lower financing options. The one way to get a Certified Pre-Owned car is from a dealer backed by the car manufacturer.
Reliability is the central advantage of getting a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle. Most CPO vehicles are specifically chosen because they’re accident-free, have low miles, and are generally in better shape than the regular used car. Once identified as a possible CPO vehicle, the vehicle will undergo a meticulous inspection. If the inspection identifies any issues with the vehicle then those issues are fixed before the vehicle will be certified. Once certified, the car receives a warranty to shield the buyer from future issues.
Another benefit of purchasing a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle is that you get a car, truck, SUV, or minivan that looks and feels new, drives perfectly, and comes with an extended warranty, but without the new-car price. Since the new-car depreciation has already taken place, a CPO vehicle is generally one of the best values on the pre-owned market. While a 3rd party warranty might be available on nearly any vehicle, a CPO warranty is not just more exhaustive but usually more cost-effective.
Buying a CPO car has extra advantages that buyers might not be aware of. Most Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles qualify for lower financing rates and also extended loan terms. In the rare event that your Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle has problems, courtesy roadside assistance is another possible advantage (and there could even be a free loaner vehicle waiting). Prepaid maintenance options, a courtesy trial of satellite radio, and trip insurance are all other perks that might be available. Talk to our CPO specialists for more info.
