New Vehicles

Pre-Owned Vehicles

Choosing a pre-owned vehicle provides you with an affordable alternative to buying new. However, there are some differences in pre-owned cars. Below is a quick summary that will help you make an informed decision when buying a pre-owned vehicle.

  • Factory-Certified vehicles have been inspected by factory-trained technicians and the vehicle has been outfitted with an extended warranty backed by the original manufacturer. Extended warranties vary by coverage according to manufacturer. All service and repairs can be done at any dealership of the same manufacturer, similar to new vehicles.
  • Dealer-Certified vehicles are certified by the dealership and independent extended warranties typically administered by a third party are available at an additional cost. In addition, an extended warranty may have limitations on the service performed. It is best to check with the dealer about your extended warranty coverage.
  • Pre-Owned vehicles typically receive a basic inspection and may not have a warranty attached to the vehicle.

Remember, only a Golden 1 Dealer Specialist can provide the pre-arranged price. There is no obligation to purchase.
