Before buying a certified pre-owned vehicle, check out this explanation of the certified pre-owned program offered by Ford. This explains the warranty program for the manufacturer; how old the certified pre-owned vehicles are, and other benefits you can expect from the manufacturer’s certified pre-owned program.
A vehicle must be 5 model years old or newer and have 65,000 miles or less. Other websites have it wrong that eight-year old vehicles are eligible. They’re not.
To qualify for certified pre-owned status, each used Ford must be less than 6 model years old and have less than 80,000 miles on the odometer.
- It must pass a 169 point-by-point exam.
- The 6-year/100,000-mile warranty provides coverage for the engine, transmission and more; and, fully transferable warranty.
- The warranty covers more than 500 components, including many high-tech parts, as well as the failure of covered components due to abnormal wear resulting from defective materials or workmanship, in addition to mechanical break downs.
- There is also a three-month, 3,000 comprehensive warranty from the time of sale. See the site for complete details.
