if you buy ur rsx from da dealer and they say its certified pre owned does it have to have everything replaced like if somethin is worn or do they replace everything?

 

So what exactly is a CPO vehicle?

It's a used vehicle that has been reconditioned into like-new shape-inside and out-and then guaranteed as such by the manufacturer. To become certified, a vehicle must pass a rigorous dealer inspection. How rigorous depends on the automaker, but most companies inspect anywhere from 100 to 300 reference points on every car. For an example of the level of detail thafs involved in these assessments, take a look at the official BMW Vehicle Inspection Checklist, which can be found either online or at your local dealer. One of the many items on the list requires the technician to measure the tread depth of the inside, center, and outside grooves on all four tires and the spare. If a part or system isn't up to factory specification, it must be fixed or replaced.

In addition, most car companies require candidate autos to be less than five years old and to have fewer than 80,000 miles on the odometer. The age and mileage limits help ensure that only rides with the most life left in them are considered, reducing the likehood that you'll end up with a lemon.

And finally, the vehicle always comes with a warranty, which can range in length from three months to several years, depending on the manufacturer.

Replace everything?

 

they replace things that are worn such as tires and brakes. if they replaced everything im sure it would probably cost more than a new car. i bought my 06 certified used and it comes with a powertrain warranty for 7-years or 100k miles. so thats a big deal to me and thats why i paid a premium for it. peace of mind.

 

I would only worry about buying one from a dealer that WASNT Certified Pre Owned.

 

You'll have to ask the dealer/salesman what is covered on the certified pre-owned cars. Every dealer will have different coverage and for a different length of time.
