A Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is a vehicle that is still covered by the manufacturer’s warranty because of limited use, excellent condition and age. A CPO vehicle is a great alternative to both new and used cars, but, as with those two categories of vehicle, you have to know how to find the CPO that is right for you.

To make sure you are getting the biggest bang for your buck, research warranties before you decide on the vehicle you would like. One example of a manufacturer warranty is Kia’s, and it may be the best example out there. Kia offers a 10 year or 100,000 mile warranty. That will cover your vehicle well past the point where maintenance becomes expected. To justify spending more on a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle rather than taking the cheaper used vehicle, you should be getting the majority of the warranty back with the vehicle, it should be in pristine condition and it should have the amenities you are looking for.

One of the most important things to remember when searching for a CPO is that for a vehicle to be certified, it has to be at a manufacturer franchised dealership. So, if you want a Honda, you need to go to a dealership with Honda in the name. If you want a Kia, there is no better place in Lawton, Oklahoma, to get a CPO than Lawton Kia. Some dealerships will promise that an extended warranty is just as good as a CPO, but it usually isn’t. To get an extended warranty, there is no further inspection required other than what the dealership did when it purchased the vehicle. For a car, truck or SUV to be considered a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle, a rigorous detailed inspection is done, so you know it is in good working order.

A CPO is an awesome option for a buyer looking for a good deal on an almost-new vehicle. As long as you know what to look for when you’re buying, you will save money on the price tag and future maintenance.
