When shopping for a vehicle, you have a few options: new, used, or Certified Pre-Owned (CPO). While a brand new car may be enticing, it also comes with a higher price tag. A used vehicle can provide a more budget-friendly alternative, but may not offer the same assurances as a new one. That's where a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle comes in, delivering many of the benefits of a new car along with the value of a used one.
Wide Selection of Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles to Choose from in Illinois
At Steve Schmitt Auto Credit, we are proud to offer a wide selection of Certified Pre-Owned vehicles to our customers. These CPO vehicles provide a great middle ground between new and used, giving you the confidence and peace of mind you want when making a significant purchase. Our dealership features CPO inventory from many popular makes including Buick, Chevy, GMC, Lexus, Nissan, and Toyota.
What Makes a CPO Vehicle?
So what exactly makes a vehicle "Certified Pre-Owned"? To earn this designation, a vehicle must pass a comprehensive inspection process set forth by the manufacturer. This rigorous certification checklist covers all major vehicle systems to ensure the vehicle is in excellent condition. Any necessary repairs or reconditioning is completed by factory-trained technicians using OEM parts before the vehicle is deemed Certified Pre-Owned.
Added Confidence of a CPO Vehicle
Choosing a CPO vehicle from Steve Schmitt Auto Credit means more than just getting a car in great shape. You'll also enjoy added peace of mind from extended warranty coverage backed by the manufacturer. This warranty goes beyond the original factory warranty, giving you protection for a longer term and against more potential issues that could arise down the road.
Many CPO vehicles also come with additional benefits like roadside assistance, so you'll never be left stranded. Some manufactures even offer exchange policies if you're not completely satisfied with your CPO vehicle after purchase. You'll also find that most CPO vehicles have lower mileage than a typical used car, as they are often lease returns or well-maintained vehicles traded in for an upgrade.
