Why Buy Certified Pre-Owned?

Why Buy Certified


Congratulations! You've taken the first step to enhancing your travels around Savannah, GA. Choosing to drive a Lincoln opens a window of opportunity to fall head-over-heels in love with your commute thanks to this brand's luxury features.

Though, when you choose to buy certified pre-owned (CPO), there's even more to love.

The team at O.C. Welch Lincoln is here to help our friends in the Hardeeville, Beaufort, Port Royal, and Hilton Head, SC, areas discover which model was made with them in mind and, more importantly, why to buy certified pre-owned. Let's get started!

What is Certified Pre-Owned?

Certified pre-owned is a type of vehicle you'll encounter when you visit our impressive showroom of luxury models. This type of vehicle shares similarities with new models, which makes it quite a unique experience.

Similarities Between New & Lincoln CPO Vehicles:

  • Outfitted with factory-authorized parts
  • Confirmed the CPO vehicle runs just as perfectly as a just-off-the-line new vehicle

While there are similarities between CPO vehicles and new models, Lincoln vehicles that have earned the certified badge are a class all on their own. That's because these models have undergone a strict process that ensures only the top-tier vehicles make their way through the process.

Plus, the purchase of a certified pre-owned Lincoln comes with many perks that aren't offered when you buy other types of vehicles.

How Does a Lincoln Become Certified?

Lincoln models undergo a strict elimination process to select only the best of the best to enter their prestigious certified pre-owned program. In order for a model to even be considered for the program, it must:

  • Be less than six years old
  • Have fewer than 60,000 miles on the odometer
  • Pass a meticulous 200-point inspection by factory-trained technicians
  • Have a clean CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™

This inspection process checks various components of the vehicle, including the vehicle's cosmetic appearance, the vehicle's underbody and frame, mechanical components, and interior/convenience features.

A road test is also performed on the Lincoln to ensure it starts, handles, and operates like a new Lincoln vehicle.

Why Buy Certified? You Gain Access to Exclusive Amenities

Are you still wondering why you should buy certified? Certified pre-owned Lincoln vehicles come with a collection of exclusive benefits you won't get when you shop new. These benefits include:

  • The confidence of a 6-year/100,000-mile comprehensive warranty coverage
  • Lincoln Certified Pre-Owned Guarantee
  • Complimentary 24/7 Roadside Assistance

Lincoln CPO models also come with the assurance of a vehicle history report. This report helps you learn more about what service was performed when, how many previous owners your Lincoln had, the last odometer reading, and more.
