What Does Certified Pre-Owned Mean?

There are a lot of options when purchasing a pre-owned vehicle for your Winter Haven commute. Purchasing a certified pre-owned vehicle means that the pre-owned vehicle was thoroughly inspected and reconditioned to factory specifications. The CPO meaning can change based on each manufacturer’s standards. Here at Chevrolet Center Inc, we offer “Our Pledge” Powertrain Warranty on most of our pre-owned vehicles, so you can have confidence in your purchase. Learn more about CPO models and how they differ from used vehicles below!

What Makes a Vehicle Certified Pre-Owned?

What does certified pre-owned mean? CPO means the pre-owned vehicle has been certified by the manufacturer. For Chevrolet, there are specific qualifications that the pre-owned vehicle has to meet. These qualifications include:

• Inspection – Certified pre-owned vehicles are inspected and reconditioned to factory specifications. If there was an issue found, it has been fixed and addressed.
• Mileage – CPO vehicles will have lower mileage and can not exceed 75,000 miles.
• Clean Title – CPO means your vehicle has a clean title. This vehicle must also pass a Vehicle History Report with a free CARFAX included.

In short, “certified pre-owned” means that a pre-owned vehicle has been vouched by the manufacturer itself.

What are the Benefits of a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle?

Now that we know what certified pre-owned means, let’s take a look at some benefits of a CPO vehicle.

• Peace of Mind – Purchasing a CPO vehicle means you can have confidence in your purchase for your commute to Lakeland because it has been thoroughly inspected by our team.
• Warranty – Chevy CPO vehicles have a 6 year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty (whichever comes first from the original in-service date). This also includes Roadside Assistance and a 12 month/12,000-mile bumper-to-bumper limited warranty.
• Maintenance – CPO vehicles include the Scheduled Maintenance Program with two included maintenance visits.
• Vehicle Exchange Program – If your CPO purchase was not satisfactory, you have up to 3 days or 150 miles (whichever comes first) to exchange your vehicle for another Chevrolet, Buick, or GMC that will best fit your needs.
