In your hunt for a Ford pre-owned vehicle, you may have come across the term, CPO or Certified Pre-Owned, and thought to yourself “Why would I buy a Certified vehicle?”
Why Ford CPO?
The Ford Certified Pre-Owned Program takes the risk out of buying a previously owned vehicle. Driving a Ford CPO vehicle means driving with the knowledge and confidence that the vehicle you purchased has been thoroughly inspected and comes with manufacture-backed limited warranty coverage.
172-Point Inspection
Ford cars, SUVs, crossovers, and trucks that are current or five previous model years and have less than 80,000 miles can qualify for certification. These vehicles are put through a rigorous 172 point inspection including a vehicle history report, road tests, exterior inspection, interior inspection, diagnostics, under the hood inspection, and under-body inspection. To see the full list of the 172 point inspection click here.
Comprehensive Limited Warranty Coverage
In addition to the 172-point inspection, every Ford Certified Pre-Owned vehicle comes with a comprehensive limited warranty covering more than 1000 components for 12 months/12,000 miles. See Bill Colwell Ford for warranty coverage details. Areas of coverage include:
Engine Electrical System Transmission Air conditioning and heating Rear-wheel drive Technology components Steering components Emissions components Brakes Front and rear suspension
Power-train Limited Warranty Coverage
On top of the comprehensive limited warranty coverage, we include seven-year/100,000-mile power-train limited warranty coverage with every Ford Certified Pre-Owned vehicle. It covers the engine, transmission and more:
- Transferable to future owners at no extra cost
- 24-Hour Roadside Assistance (towing, jump starts for dead batteries, flat-tire changes on-site and lockout services) is included for the duration of the power-train limited warranty coverage
