There’s a lot to think about when purchasing a luxury car, crossover or SUV. Find the answers you’re after right here and step behind the wheel of your Certified Pre-Owned or Certified Pre-Owned Select vehicle in cool, collected confidence today.
What is a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle?
Our Certified Pre-Owned and Certified Pre-Owned Select vehicles combine the exceptional experience of owning a luxury vehicle at a pre-owned value with the confidence that comes along with true peace of mind. Our certification process is tailored according to your vehicle’s make, mileage and in-service date.
Important Warranty InformationCan any pre-owned used vehicle be Certified?
No. In addition to holding a clean, non-branded title – confirming that the vehicle has never been recognized as being involved in any serious or incidents or accidents – only eligible pre-owned vehicles that meet our high standards for quality are able to qualify for Certified Pre-Owned status.
INFINITI vehicles that are part of our INFINITI Certified Pre-Owned program must be less than five years old, have less than 60,000 miles on the odometer and pass our comprehensive 167-point inspection.
To qualify for our Certified Pre-Owned Select program, an INFINITI or non-INFINITI vehicle must be up to ten years old, have less than 100,000 miles on the odometer and pass a rigorous 84-point inspection.
Additionally, INFINITI vehicles must not qualify for the standard INFINITI Certified Pre-Owned program.
Where can I purchase a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle?
Certified Pre-Owned and Certified Pre-Owned Select vehicles are only sold through participating INFINITI retailers. That’s because INFINITI Certified Pre-Owned and Certified Pre-Owned Select vehicles come together with a Factory Backed Limited Warranty that can only be offered and honored by an authorized INFINITI retailer.
What’s involved in a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle inspection?
All Certified Pre-Owned and Certified Pre-Owned Select vehicles must pass a comprehensive multi-point mechanical inspection. This inspection must be completed at an authorized INFINITI Retailer. A CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™ is provided along with a complete INFINITI service history review.
Further, any and all reconditioning is handled exclusively with INFINITI-approved parts and processes. Only upon completion of this rigorous inspection process can a car or SUV be labeled as a Certified Pre-Owned or Certified Pre-Owned Select vehicle.
What is a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™?
The CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™ is used across the automotive industry to provide a comprehensive listing of a vehicle's accident history, service records and ownership details.
What is the CARFAX® Three-Year Buyback Guarantee?
Each INFINITI Certified Pre-Owned vehicle comes with a three-year CARFAX® Buyback Guarantee – an offer unique within the automotive industry. If the report does not include an existing DMV-issued branded title (such as salvaged, fire or flood damage, or odometer problems), CARFAX® may buy it back for full purchase price. Consider it proof that CARFAX® stands behind the information they provide to INFINITI Certified Pre-Owned buyers.
A Buyback Guarantee is not included for Certified Pre-Owned Select vehicles.
