Certified Pre-Owned: Warranty and Certification

Warranty

Call us idealistic, but we figure everyone deserves a nice Volkswagen.That's why we've put so much into our Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) program. As you'll read, Certified Pre-Owned Volkswagens are as close to new as it gets. For starters, they're protected by a 2-year/24,000-mile Limited Warranty¹ covering just about every conceivable problem. Not that any are likely, since each CPO candidate must survive car boot camp just to be considered for certification. And if they make it, we subject them to an intense inspection and reconditioning program.Top it off with 24-hour Roadside Assistance² for two years. So, really, there isn't much we've left to chance here.

Our 2-year/24,000-mile LimitedWarranty¹

It's a shame our lawyers make us use the word "limited" to describe such a ridiculously comprehensive warranty. Essentially, you're covered head to toe. So if there's a defect in materials or workmanship during the warranty's span, other than the usual wear and tear, it's taken care of. Plus, we'll honor the existing balance of any other limited warranties remaining on your Volkswagen. All of this protection - kind of makes you feel warm and safe, doesn't it? We've listed just a few of the major systems covered to the right.

What's covered?

Pre-Owned Certification

Obviously the VW in question has got to be pre-owned. Used. What else? Well, it can not be more than 5 years old. In addition, it must have less than 75,000 miles or 120,000 km on the odometer, and if there's any new car warranty remaining on the vehicle, the vehicle must be at least 12 months in service. Last, but not least, it must undergo our rigourous 112 point inspection.
