Honda Named in Autotrader’s ‘10-Best Non-luxury CPO Programs for 2018’

Honda has been recognized by Autotrader for having one of the “10-Best Non-luxury Certified Pre-Owned Programs for 2018.”¹ Autotrader’s selections were based on several criteria, such as powertrain warranty length, bumper-to-bumper warranty length, deductible amount, and transferability. “Beyond being budget friendly, buying a certified vehicle provides an extra level of comfort, knowing your car has been through a rigorous inspection and is backed by the manufacturer for an extended length of time,” said Brian Moody, executive editor for Autotrader. “Sometimes, that warranty is longer than you get with a new car and is certainly better than with a non-certified used car.”

Honda’s Certified Pre-Owned program can give customers the opportunity to save money on a quality Honda model without sacrificing their peace of mind. Autotrader cited the generous coverage of Honda’s transferable and deductible-free 7-year/100,000 mile powertrain warranty² as one of the main reasons for the accolade. “Honda’s CPO program is an obvious choice for our list, as it touts excellent coverage that adds peace of mind to the brand’s products, which are already notoriously reliable,” said Autotrader. They also praised Honda’s additional 1-year/12,000 mile bumper-to-bumper limited warranty.³

More about Honda Certified Pre-Owned

Most manufacturers offer some sort of certified pre-owned program, but Honda has taken steps to set itself apart. “Not every certified used vehicle program is created equal,” says Honda. “Our program includes many benefits that a private seller or other programs just can’t match, like a comprehensive process for delivering a level of accuracy, transparency and peace of mind unmatched in the industry.”

Certification Process

Certified Pre-Owned Honda models are subject to a rigorous certification process. Vehicles must be well-maintained, in good condition, produced within the last six years, and have less than 80,000 miles on the odometer. The process includes a comprehensive 182-point inspection of the interior and exterior of the vehicle, performed by Honda-trained service technicians. Key components that are inspected include the brakes, engine, exhaust, drivetrain, steering, suspension, tires, wheels, body condition, and paint. This thorough screening process is what allows Honda to offer the aforementioned warranty programs on Certified Pre-Owned models.

Added Benefits

A complimentary vehicle history report is also included with each Certified Pre-Owned Honda, which includes important information about the vehicle’s registration history, title information, reported accident history, and odometer readings. An additional perk is the inclusion of a complimentary 3-month trial of SiriusXM Radio on vehicles that came factory-equipped with SiriusXM Radio.⁴ The added benefits of Honda’s Certified Pre-Owned program offer tremendous value to shoppers that are considering a pre-owned vehicle.

Certified Pre-Owned Honda models offer everything you expect from a Honda. Customers can get a great deal without worrying about the vehicle’s history or reliability.
