After comparing key aspects of their respective certified pre-owned programs, it's easy to see how Chevrolet outperforms the competition. Although some brands are able to match Chevrolet in one or two categories, you won't find any of the following advantages from Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge/RAM, Ford, or Toyota.
- $0 Deductible - Unlike other brands which force you to pay a deductible ranging from $50-$150, you'll never have to worry about any deductible when you choose a Chevrolet CPO vehicle.
- Complimentary Scheduled Maintenance - Choosing Chevrolet over the competition means that you'll receive your first two oil change & tire rotation maintenance visits free of charge. This means you'll begin your ownership experience with the peace of mind that comes from knowing your vehicle will be serviced by factory-trained technicians -- all at no cost to you!
- Return / Exchange Program - Another exclusive perk available to Chevrolet Certified Pre-Owned owners is a return / exchange program. Since loving your new vehicle remains the most important component of your buying experience, Chevrolet offers CPO owners the option to return or exchange their vehicle within the first 3 days or 150 miles (whichever comes first)*. Whether your driving needs have changed or you're adding a new member to your growing family -- Chevrolet is here for you.
- OnStar Trial Subscription - Knowing that you're never alone on the road is always a comforting feeling. Included with your Chevrolet CPO vehicle is a complimentary trial subscription to OnStar Safety & Security Plan Coverage and Connected Services including remote start and door unlock from your smartphone.
