Know the
ins and outs of the CPOV program
A CPOV is a
pre-owned option that has met special requirements. Only certain pre-owned
vehicles are eligible for this title!
What
are the requirements a CPOV must meet? For a vehicle to even be
considered, it must be younger than five model years and have less than 75,000
miles. This ensures that a shopper is going to get contemporary styles, recent
technology, and plenty of mileage left on the vehicle.
The vehicle
must then pass an extensive 125-point inspection. Certified technicians look
for ownership materials, perform several road checks, review major components,
and note the vehicle's appearance. If any parts are needed they only order genuine
parts or accessories to complete the job!
What
Certified brands do you carry? Even though you'll find pre-owned
Ford, Honda, or Toyota vehicles at our dealership, when it comes to Certified
models we only carry our brands of Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, and FIAT.
Does
a CPOV cost more than a "normal" pre-owned car? Because a
vehicle that earns a CPOV title has reached such high standards, you'll
generally pay more for a CPOV Chrysler 300 than your standard used Chrysler
300, for example. That said, the CPOV route is still less expensive than buying
new. There are also additional perks that shoppers who buy a
CPOV get that they wouldn't if they were buying a standard pre-owned model.
What are
the CPOV vehicle perks?
The CPOV
designation and quality are desirable enough, but when you drive away in a CPOV
vehicle you'll get warranties and other perks.
Warranties:
protection when you need it is one of the biggest perks of buying certified.
Below are the three warranties you'll receive.
7-year/100,000-mile
powertrain warranty (based on when the vehicle was purchased new)
3-month/3,000-mile
maximum care warranty (starts from time of CPOV purchase)
Lifetime
Certified Upgrade Plans (plans include Powertrain Care, Added Care Plus, and
Maximum Care)
Roadside
assistance and car rentals: whether you're in town or a few states
over, you can get 24-hour roadside assistance up to $100 per occurrence. Perks
include gas, flat-tire service, battery-jump assistance, a lockout service, and
towing help! If your car is undriveable and in for maintenance, you'll receive
rental car reimbursement.
Additional
goodies: all CPOV come with a free CARFAX report so you can get
insights into your car's past. There's even a complimentary 3-month
subscription to SiriusXM satellite radio, which provides way more options than
your local radio station.

we invite you to stop into our dealership for a test drive and an opportunity
