GMC Certified Pre-Own Program Solves Your Used Car Fears

GMC of Rochester is in the new car business. However, we understand that not everyone’s fiscal priorities leave room for a new vehicle, so of course, we have a robust used car program. We also appreciate that used car shopping brings a whole new set of considerations. You don’t have to consider mileage, mechanical condition, or a degree of wear and tear on a new model, but these become top-of-mind considerations when looking at used vehicles. 

In fact, we feel pretty safe saying that almost every used car shopper’s underlying goal is to find a model that is as close to new as possible. We understand that and so does GMC, which is why they created the GMC Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Program. It is a welcome bridge between shopping for new and used GMC vehicles. The program handpicks the best from our pre-owned GMC vehicles and assures that you’re not just buying a car but a reliable and top-notch vehicle.

The Best of What We Get

There are five requirements for a vehicle to be part of the GMC CPO program:

  • Less than 6 model years old
  • Has no more than 75,000 miles
  • Includes a clean title
  • Passed GMC’s 172-point inspection

As part of the inspection, all maintenance services must be up to date, and any recalls must be taken care of.

CPO Means Covered by Warranty

GMC of Rochester technicians perform their inspections with considerable scrutiny because every CPO vehicle is then available with a 12-month bumper-to-bumper limited warranty and a 6-year / 100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty (total accumulated miles). Both of these warranties require no deductible and are transferable to subsequent owners. 

Additional benefits include two complimentary maintenance visits across two years and 24,000 miles from your purchase, including oil and filter changes, tire rotations, and multipoint inspections. The warranty includes 24/7 roadside assistance. We or any GMC dealer will send out a vehicle for routine issues such as dead battery, low gas, or key issues or bring the vehicle back to a certified GMC dealer if additional work is required. Certified GMC dealers perform all warranty work. 

There is even a benefit prior to purchase in the form of a free CARFAX® Vehicle History ReportTM so you can learn more about a vehicle’s past. For assurance immediately after purchase, there is a 3-day/150-mile exchange policy to give you peace of mind if you decide the model isn’t for you. 

CPO Models are Easy to Find

The CPO program effectively removes much of the worry experienced by any used car shopper. Because the nature of used cars is that inventory regularly changes, GMC of Rochester has made it easy to find the CPO vehicles in their used car inventory by simply selecting CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED from the PRE-OWNED drop-down at the top of our website. Because Buick has the same program, you can also find their CPO models in the listings. You can also look here for more information on the CPO program.

Whether shopping for new or used vehicles, you are a GMC of Rochester customer, and we will do what we can to ensure your short—and long-term satisfaction.
