What is Different About a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle?

People often agonize over what they are looking for when they go shopping for their next car. It can often times feel like a guessing game. Is the car you like a practical choice for your needs? Will it fit in your budget? It’s hard to wrap your head around all of the questions that come with car shopping. 

Most people struggle with deciding whether or not they want to go with a new or used car. Newer cars are nicer, but more expensive. Used cars are more affordable, but they can come with some serious questions. What if there was some sort of middle ground? Can you find an affordable used car that comes with some guarantees? You can with the certified pre-owned program at Nissan. 

What is a Nissan Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle? 

People are understandably concerned whenever they think about buying a used car. It’s hard to tell what a previous driver might have put a car through. Certified pre-owned vehicles take all of that guess work and concern out of the equation. Nissan does this by putting used cars through a 167-point inspection first. Any problems they notice are fixed and if it can’t be fixed, then it doesn’t become certified.

A certified pre-owned also comes with a lot more protection than your average used vehicle. Nissan offers a seven-year or 100,000-mile powertrain warranty and roadside assistance coverage plan for these vehicles. It’s unlikely you’ll find any sort of warranty on a used vehicle, let alone something this comprehensive. These vehicles are also selected so that you’re getting the best possible options available from Nissan.
