Buying used cars was once a risky activity. Thankfully those days are gone and have been replaced by the modern era of certified pre-owned vehicles. Here are the three best reasons to buy a certified pre-owned Chevrolet car.
1. High Standards
Only after a vehicle has been thoroughly inspected and tested against a specific set of criteria does it rise to the status of a certified pre-owned vehicle. The Chevrolet CPO program has the following requirements:
- The vehicle cannot be more than six years old
- The engine cannot have over 75,000 miles
- It must have a clean title
- It must pass a 172-point inspection
- It must be up to date on all safety recalls
2. Premium Benefits
Because certified pre-owned vehicles undergo such rigorous inspection, warranties and maintenance programs are also often available. You’ll get the benefits of buying used but with the confidence of buying new. Chevrolet CPO benefits include:
- Scheduled maintenance programs
- Powertrain limited warranty
- Bumper-to-bumper limited warranty
- 24/7 roadside assistance and courtesy transportation
3. Peace of Mind
The high standards and premium benefits add up to one thing for buyers: peace of mind. This comes from the confidence of knowing that your used vehicle has been inspected—inside and out—by a qualified professional. You’ll rest easy with the knowledge that your vehicle is well-protected, for a lower cost than if you bought a brand-new car.
To top it off, if you aren’t happy with your vehicle for any reason (within the first 150 miles of driving or three days of owning), you can bring it back and exchange it.
