A Look at the GM Certified Pre-Owned Program
September 07 2022,
If you are looking for a pre-owned vehicle, the Certified Pre-Owned Program from General Motors is there to give you peace of mind with its thorough inspection, comprehensive warranty and 24-hour roadside assistance.
An Inspection of more than 150 points
Every Certified Pre-Owned GM vehicle goes through a complete 150+ point inspection to make sure it is in great shape and doesn’t have hidden defects that could cause you trouble down the road. This inspection covers items related to every major system of the vehicle including the engine, the electrical system, the braking system, the suspension, and the safety equipment. This inspection also includes a road test to make sure no fault goes unnoticed and any open recall has to be performed prior to the vehicle being put on sale, so you know you will be able to drive away in your new pre-owned GM vehicle without worry.
The Manufacturer’s warranty
The manufacturer’s warranty is the reason why many people choose to buy a new vehicle instead of a pre-owned one. With the GM Certified Pre-Owned Program, every car or truck benefits from a manufacturer-backed warranty that covers you in case of any issue. If you wish, you can opt for an extended Vehicle Protection Plan that affords you this same protection for many more years after your purchase. Another advantage of this warranty is that it is transferrable to future owners if you decide to sell your vehicle before the end of its coverage, which adds value to your trade-in.
The 24/7 roadside assistance
If your vehicle becomes immobilized due to a mechanical problem or because it gets stuck in mud or deep snow, you can rely on the Certified Roadside Assistance which is included with every Certified Pre-Owned GM vehicle. This service can get you going on the spot with a repair or a winch. If this is unsuccessful, your vehicle can be towed to the nearest GM dealer, no matter where you are. If a breakdown occurs while you are more than 250 kilometres from home, the roadside assistance program will even provide you reimbursement for some expenses such as lodging and meals up to 195$ per day.
