Certified New and Used Ford Vehicles

Our Warranties Guarantee the Quality Performance of Our Cars

Sales of certified pre-owned Ford vehicles have been steadily increasing since the turn of the century. For many drivers, used Ford cars are much more affordable and convenient than expensive new automobiles. Certified used Fords feature extended warranties that protect both the driver and the car.

To qualify as a certified vehicle, a Ford's warranty must be backed by the original manufacturer. The Ford car brand must use its dealer network to closely inspect the car, offer support for the vehicle and determine if its current condition is worth certifying. Not all used Ford cars can qualify for certified pre-owned condition, and qualifications may vary from one car model to the next.

Certified Ford Vehicles Guarantee Safe Driving For Car Owners

If professionally-trained Ford mechanics find problems with the used car, they will repair it or state that the car cannot be deemed certified. The certified warranty usually goes into effect when the original Ford warranty expires. It may cover a certain amount of years or miles, whichever comes first.

Certified pre-owned Ford vehicles often come with the standard benefits that new vehicle drivers enjoy. Service loan cars, shuttle pick-up and drop-off service, free vehicle repair maintenance, roadside help and incentive loans are just some of the many bonuses of choosing a certified Ford vehicle. Certified car owners can also have their car, SUV, truck, or van serviced by a local Ford dealer.

Extended Certified Coverage Benefits Ford Drivers

Some certification programs offer buyers the option of adding extended coverage. This can benefit the purchaser, since the coverage that the manufacturing factory provides is included in the net price of the car. Some certified programs offer deluxe services like trip routing, trip interruption protection and in-car safety telephonic services. Trip interruption protection is a feature that will financially reimburse a car's driver for any incidental expenditures due to a car's mechanical failure. This includes hotel, inn and motel stays, some dining costs and additional expenses.
