A pre-owned car that has a warranty like a new car is known as a CPO vehicle. Believe it or not, in some rare situations, a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle could even have a better warranty than when the car was new. On the other hand, some dealers may offer vehicles that they ‘certify’, but it is just a play on words. The dealer might complete a certification process on pre-owned cars, but it’s not truly the same thing. A true CPO vehicle is subjected to a meticulous and rigorous inspection, gives the security of a new car, and offers bonuses like special financing rates. The one place to purchase a legitimate CPO vehicle is at a dealership backed by the car manufacturer.
Peace of mind is the central benefit of getting a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle. Most Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles are picked specifically because they are accident-free, have low miles, and are nicer than the regular pre-owned car. Once identified as a likely CPO candidate, the car will be subjected to a rigorous inspection process. If the inspection procedure identifies any issues with the car then they will be repaired before the vehicle is certified. Once a vehicle is certified, it gets an extended warranty to guard against problems in the future.
Another perk of purchasing a CPO car is that you get a car, truck, SUV, or minivan that looks and feels new, drives like new, and comes with a warranty, all without the new-car price. Since the new-car depreciation has already taken place, a CPO car is typically among the best buys in the pre-owned market. While a 3rd party warranty may be available on most vehicles, a CPO warranty is not only more robust but generally also more cost-effective.
There are other perks of purchasing a CPO vehicle. Most Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles are eligible for better financing rates and even extended loan terms. In the rare possibility that your CPO car, truck, SUV, or minivan has problems, courtesy roadside assistance is another possible benefit (and they could even have a free loaner car waiting for you). A complimentary satellite radio trial, prepaid maintenance options, and trip insurance are all other upgrades that could be available. See our Certified Pre-Owned experts for more information.
