Acura Certification

 

A long-standing commitment to quality and reliability allows the Certified Pre-Owned program to include vehicles 6 years old or newer with less than 80,000 miles. Limited warranty coverage is extensive and customer benefits are virtually identical to those afforded new-car buyers.

How it begins is with a careful selection process. Only well-maintained, late-model Acura vehicles are even considered. Each "candidate" must then pass a comprehensive 150-point inspection and a CARFAX Vehicle History Report review. Virtually every mechanical system--from the engine to the door locks--is checked and serviced to meet stringent specifications. A conscientious appearance inspection scrutinizes fit and finish, inside and out. And each vehicle is reconditioned to offer a "like-new" ownership experience.

Certified Acura technicians perform exhaustive mechanical inspections to ensure that every Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is a model of performance and reliability.
