Frequently Asked QuestionsCoverage & Vehicles

Are certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicles covered?

Plain-English Answer

Often yes. CPO vehicles typically include a manufacturer-backed warranty extension. If a defect appears during that coverage and the manufacturer cannot repair it after a reasonable number of attempts, Song-Beverly remedies may apply the same way they do for new cars. Keep the CPO inspection report, warranty booklet, and every repair order from authorized dealers.
