Commonly Asked Questions

What is a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle?

Certified Pre-Owned vehicles are pre-owned units that the manufacturer has validated. Not every car is good enough to deserve the Certified Pre-Owned label. Only those that go through a rigorous qualifying and reconditioning process can receive certification.

Certified Pre-Owned vehicles offer buyers various benefits that give them the same level of comfort associated with purchasing a new car. These benefits include restored warranties, roadside assistance, and more.

How does a car qualify for Honda's Certified Pre-Owned program?

To qualify for the Honda Certified Pre-Owned program, a vehicle must be no older than ten years old and undergo an 182-point inspection. The inspection will include repairs and updates, and any issues found will be repaired using original factory parts.

What are the benefits of purchasing a Honda Certified Pre-Owned model?

You'll not only get the benefits of buying used, such as massive savings and a lower depreciation rate, but you'll also find unique Certified Pre-Owned Honda benefits. These include:

  • 24-Hour Roadside Assistance
  • Free Oil Changes
  • Limited Trip Interruption Reimbursement
  • Comprehensive Warranty Coverage
  • 3 Day Exchange Policy Concierge Service

Are there different Certified Pre-Owned levels?

There are actually three different tiers of Honda Certified Pre-Owned vehicles to choose from. The entry-level HondaTrue Used applies to 2012-2022 models and includes 100 days or 5,000 miles in Powertrain and Non-Powertrain coverage. With HondaTrue Certified, the models must come from 2017-2022 and be at no more than 80,000 miles, and you'll have a Powertrain warranty for seven years or 100,000 miles. At the top is the HondaTrue Certified+ program, which applies to 2021-2022 models with under 80,000 miles. You'll have Powertrain coverage for seven years, or 100,000 miles, and Non-Powertrain coverage for five years or 86,000 miles.

What's the difference between a Certified Pre-Owned Honda and a regular used car?

Honda is known for its rigorous testing on certified pre-owned cars. They offer manufacturer-backed warranties, which assure buyers. If you want reliability without the guesswork, a certified pre-owned vehicle is the way to go. A regular used car does not come with these assurances.

Can I trade in my present car for a Certified Pre-Owned Honda?

Of course, you can. We can help you trade in your current vehicle and use the trade-in value to purchase a Certified Pre-Owned Honda. Plus, you can receive an instant online trade-in quote and come into our dealership for an appraisal.
