Why Buy Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles?

Mercedes-Benz vehicles are known for being high-quality, stylish, strong, and sleek. They’re also known to last longer than competitors’ cars, meaning that your investment in a Mercedes is going to yield higher returns than another car.

Of course, even with a high quality car like a Mercedes-Benz S-Class, GLE, E-Class, or GLC, buying a used car can feel like a risk. That’s why Mercedes offers a Certified Pre-Owned program to provide our customers greater peace of mind on their drives, and to allow you to purchase a pre-owned Mercedes that has all the assurances of a brand new model.

How a Pre-Owned Mercedes Becomes Certified

Not every used Mercedes can become a Certified Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz. We subject every used car on our lot to a series of tests and inspections to ensure it’s up to the quality our customers expect before certifying it. The requirements for the inspection includes the following criteria:

• The vehicle must be fewer than 6 years old

• It must have been driven fewer than 75,000 miles

• It must have been serviced according to the Mercedes-Benz service schedule

• It must include a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report

These requirements are only the beginning of the gauntlet through which each Mercedes must pass in order to become certified. Our factory-trained technicians will also perform a thorough 165+ point inspection over the exterior structure and appearance, interior finishes, surfaces, upholstery, safety features, and the interior systems like electrical, engine, fluid dynamic, filtering, and transmission. We also perform all standard service and replace any recalled parts.

Finally, our dealer technicians take the Mercedes for a test drive to ensure that not only does it look like it should work, but it actually does. We make sure it steers and brakes smoothly, corners easily, and features low noise and vibration.

The Perks of Owning a Certified Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz

Since we’ve taken the time to ensure our Certified Pre-Owned vehicles are of high quality, we can provide a number of additional perks. Included in these is the remaining portion of the 4-year/50,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty, or after that expires, a Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty that provides an extra 12-month/unlimited-mile coverage of your Mercedes. You can also spring for the available Certified Pre-Owned Extended Limited Warranty for an extra year or two years!

Each of these warranties covers a number of components and systems, including

• Engine components

• Powertrain components

• Suspension

• Brakes (excluding normal wear of discs and pads)

• Steering system

• Electrical systems

• Air conditioning and heating

• Audio and Navigation Systems

• and more!

If that’s not enough, Certified Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz vehicles include a 7-day/500-mile exchange guarantee, 24/7 complementary Roadside Assistance as part of your warranty coverage, and Trip Interruption coverage if you’ve broken down more than 100 miles from home.
