The Benefits of Buying Volkswagen Certified

When you shop for a pre-owned vehicle, you want to shop with confidence- and that’s exactly what you get when you buy “Volkswagen Certified”. The Volkswagen Certified Pre-Owned Program aims to provide the reassurance of trusted quality and exceptional value. If you’re in the market for a used Volkswagen consider all that the Volkswagen Certified Pre-Owned Program has to offer.
 

What Does Certified Pre-Owned Volkswagen Mean?
 

With a pre-owned vehicle, shoppers often worry about the condition of the car and what it endured from its previous owner. However, purchasing a Certified Pre-Owned Volkswagen can put those thoughts to ease. Only Volkswagen cars that have been put through a comprehensive, 100+ point dealer inspection can attain the stamp of approval of being named “certified”. This means that if a Volkswagen does not perform according to strict VW standards then it cannot be certified until the issues are corrected- using Genuine Volkswagen Parts, of course.

What are the Advantages of a Volkswagen Certified Pre-Owned Automobile?

For just a fraction of the cost of a new Volkswagen, CPO buyers can expect like-new quality on their purchase. A comprehensive 112-point inspection must be successfully passed to be considered Certified- that is how you know only the best-of-the-best of our used Volkswagens can make the cut. 

The inspection process includes: checking engine performance for starting issues, knocking, and vibration, checking transmission for performance malfunction or noise, testing brakes for proper function, stopping distance, and vibration, steering tests for noise, effort, vibration, and pulling, recommended or required maintenance updates and more.

In addition to the points mentioned above, there are several additional benefits included such as:

  • A complete CARFAX® Vehicle History Report is provided, so you don’t have any doubts about how the previous owner took care of the automobile.
  • A bumper-to-bumper 2-year/24,000-mile limited warranty is included for your peace of mind.
  • Two years of 24-hour roadside assistance is also included and entirely complimentary, again for your peace of mind.
  • Enjoy a free All-Access trial subscription to SiriusXM® Satellite Radio with a purchase of any VW Certified used vehicle.

What Does Volkswagen Certified Pre-Owned Warranty Cover?

Every Certified Pre-Owned Volkswagen is covered by Model-Specific Limited Warranty. The warranty period begins when the New Vehicle Limited Warranty expires or on the sale date of the CPO VW vehicle, whichever occurs later. For example, here are the following warranties by year and/or mileage:

  • Model Year 2017 and earlier gas, hybrid, and electric vehicles: 2-year or 24,000-Mile (whichever occurs first).
  • Model Year 2018 and newer vehicles: 1-year or 12,000-Mile (whichever occurs first).
  • Model Year 2016 and earlier TDI vehicles: 2-Year Unlimited-Mile. 

The coverage covers the following:

  • Engine, steering, axles (front/rear) Manual transmission, should your vehicle have it equipped
