Why Buy Used vs Certified Pre-Owned?
If you've never bought a pre-owned car before, you may be surprised at the options you can choose from at our Chevy dealership. Drivers around Plainfield, Indianapolis, and Avon, IN, can choose from our diverse range of Chevy sedans, trucks, and SUVs, with a used or certified pre-owned (CPO) price tag for added savings.
Still, if you're wondering why you should consider buying used or certified pre-owned, read on to learn more about what both options offer. Andy Mohr Chevrolet believes we have something for everyone—so let's get started.
What is Certified Pre-Owned?
Not every car can be labeled certified pre-owned. To achieve this status, a vehicle must undergo a rigorous 172-point inspection and reconditioning process to ensure it meets the highest General Motors standards.
Once certified, these vehicles include a 6-year/100,000-mile Powertrain Limited Warranty and a 12-month/12,000-mile Bumper-to-Bumper Limited Warranty to offer comprehensive coverage for any unforeseen issues.
Plus, our CPO vehicles include 24/7 roadside assistance, receive a complimentary CARFAX Vehicle History Report™, and a free trial of OnStar services and SiriusXM Radio. These added benefits make it an enticing option to consider—even on a budget.
How is Used Different from CPO?
While both used and CPO vehicles can be more affordable than new cars, there are several key differences between the two buying types. For instance, non-certified used cars generally do not undergo the stringent inspection and reconditioning processes that CPO vehicles do. This means that while used cars can still be in excellent condition, they may not offer the same level of reliability and assurance as CPO vehicles.
Additionally, used cars typically do not come with the extensive warranties and roadside assistance provided with CPO vehicles. However, used cars are often more affordable upfront, offering significant savings for budget-conscious buyers willing to assume a bit more risk.
