Before buying a certified pre-owned vehicle, check out this explanation of the certified pre-owned program offered by Mazda. 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.

This designation is for Mazdas that are less than five years old, have been driven fewer than 62,000 miles and have passed a 100-point vehicle inspection designed to test every aspect of a vehicle.

  • At the conclusion of the new vehicle powertrain warranty, the Mazda Certified Powertrain Warranty begins.
  • This warranty will cover all the components listed for a total of 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first from the original in-service date.
  • Mazda has different warranties for vehicles in the 2003-2006 model years vs. 2007 models. Check the website or ask your dealer for complete details.
