Why You Should Consider Buying A Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle

A Certified Pre-owned (CPO) vehicle is different from your average used car. A certified pre-owned vehicle will go through a certification process run by Mike Patton or by factory-trained mechanics (with necessary repairs) and come with a manufacturer-backed warranty. Which means that there will be less trouble on the road in your newly purchased pre-owned vehicle - and if not, you're covered. Consider buying a Certified Pre-owned vehicle as you learn about the advantages of purchasing one.

Multi-Point Inspection

Factory-trained mechanics will check on hundreds of parts and systems to ensure they meet the minimum requirements to be certified. The customer may request copies of the signed inspection, warranty, and vehicle history, which can address any issues before they buy the vehicle.

Extended Warranty

You receive warranty that extends the miles covered, the months remaining, or both to the bumper-to-bumper warranty or powertrain warranty. Coverage varies by manufacturer but it's not rare for the warranty to stretch up to six years from when the vehicle was first purchased, and cover parts for up to 100,000 miles.

Newer, Lower-Mileage Vehicles

Most CPO vehicles must be within certain mileage and age limits to be certified. Though this varies, most must be less than six years old and have less than 70,000 miles to qualify; many manufacturer programs have even lower age and mile limits than that. Since many new vehicles are leased for just two or three years, it's easy to find like-new, low-mileage examples of virtually every model on the market.
