There are many reasons to consider used and Certified Pre-Owned cars from Sansone Auto when the time comes for your next car, truck, or SUV. Here’s what you’ll want to know when deciding between a CPO model or a used car with an extended warranty.

CPO

Certified Pre-Owned vehicles are the cars you can turn to when you need that little extra peace of mind out on the open road. CPO models must undergo a rigorous inspection and repair process in order to qualify. While every automaker has different requirements, CPO models are typically just a few years old, have limited mileage, and have passed a 100+ point inspection.

Typically, you’ll get another two years on top of the original warranty, as well as added support and coverage benefits like roadside assistance, trip interruption coverage, and complimentary service appointments.

Extended Warranty

Another option to consider is an extended warranty. In the case of the extended warranty, you can skip the more costly CPO model and pick out a used car instead. Used cars offer a lower down payment and lower monthly payments. You’ll even pay less in interest since you’ll be able to pay your vehicle off more quickly.

You’ll also be able to get good protection for your used model when you purchase an extended warranty. One of the biggest benefits of this is the savings, since even paying for a warranty out of pocket is typically less costly than buying CPO.

You can purchase an extended warranty for any car, customize the length of term and coverage type, and schedule service and repairs at the service center of your choice. However, keep in mind your used car won’t have some of the other perks of CPO cars, such as the inspection and repairs.
