Below, we answer some of the most frequently asked questions about the Chevrolet certified pre-owned vehicle program and why it’s a smart choice for Oklahoma drivers.

What Is a Certified Pre-Owned Chevrolet?

A Certified Pre-Owned Chevrolet is a pre-owned vehicle that meets specific age, mileage, and condition standards set by Chevrolet. Every certified Chevy must be:

  • Less Than Six Model Years Old
  • Have Fewer Than 75,000 Miles
  • Pass A Rigorous 172-Point Inspection Conducted by GM-Certified Technicians
  • Free of Major Damage or Title Issues

This process ensures that only high-quality vehicles are given the Chevrolet stamp of approval.

What Does the 172-Point Inspection Cover?

The 172-point inspection Chevrolet requires for every certified pre-owned model is one of the most thorough in the industry. It covers everything from mechanical systems to cosmetic conditions. Key inspection points include:

  • Engine Performance and Transmission Operation
  • Braking System and Suspension Components
  • HVAC, Infotainment, and Safety Systems
  • Interior and Exterior Appearance
  • Tires, Wheels, and Alignment

Any issues that are detected during the inspection process are addressed during an equally detailed reconditioning process, during which certified technicians use genuine GM parts to return the vehicle to like-new status before it can be sold as a certified pre-owned Chevrolet.

Do Certified Pre-Owned Chevrolets Come with a Warranty?

Yes. One of the biggest perks of choosing a Certified Pre-Owned Chevrolet is the factory-backed warranty coverage:

  • 6-Year/100,000-Mile Powertrain Limited Warranty (from original in-service date)
  • 12-Month/12,000-Mile Bumper-to-Bumper Limited Warranty (starting from the certified pre-owned purchase date)

This coverage includes a $0 deductible and is fully transferable, adding value if you ever decide to sell the vehicle.

Are There Other Benefits Included?

Absolutely. Every Chevrolet certified pre-owned vehicle comes with a comprehensive package of benefits that include:

  • Roadside Assistance: 24/7 help with towing, flat tires, lockouts, and more for the duration of the Powertrain Warranty
  • Courtesy Transportation: Available during warranty repairs
  • Vehicle Exchange Program: Return the vehicle within the first 3 days or 150 miles if you’re not satisfied
  • OnStar® and SiriusXM Trials: Eligible vehicles include three-month trial subscriptions
  • Free Vehicle History Report: Every certified pre-owned vehicle includes a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report

How Is a Certified Pre-Owned Chevrolet Different from a Standard Used Vehicle?

While both certified pre-owned and standard used vehicles at Carter Chevrolet offer savings over new models, only Certified Pre-Owned Chevrolet vehicles are backed by factory-trained inspections, GM warranties, and added perks like roadside assistance. It’s the closest you can get to new – without paying new.

Can I Finance a Certified Pre-Owned Chevy?

Yes, and Carter Chevrolet works with a variety of lenders to offer flexible certified pre-owned auto financing options. Qualified buyers may also access special low-interest rates through GM Financial, just like those offered on new models. Pre-approval is simple, and you can start the process online or visit us in-store.

What Models Are Available in the Chevrolet Certified Pre-Owned Program?

Nearly all Chevrolet vehicles qualify for the certified pre-owned program if they meet the eligibility criteria. This includes popular models like:

  • Chevy Silverado 1500
  • Chevy Equinox
  • Chevy Tahoe
  • Chevy Traverse
  • Chevy Colorado
  • Chevy Malibu

Availability may vary, so we recommend checking our certified pre-owned inventory online or calling our Okarche dealership directly.
