When it comes to buying a vehicle, a Certified Pre-Owned Ford is an easy decision. Why? Because it blends the peace of mind provided by a new car with the price savings offered by a pre-owned model. For many South Carolina Ford fans, a CPO Explorer or Ranger provides all the assurance and savings that they could want from their next vehicle purchase.
At our Ford dealer near Greer, we stock a wide number of CPO cars, trucks and SUVs, each compliant with the stringent Ford Certified rules and requirements. Below, you can check out just what goes into the certification process and review the many benefits of the Ford CPO program. But to truly understand the appeal of a CPO vs. used car, we encourage you to visit our showroom. One test-drive will quickly turn you into a lifelong fan of everything CPO Ford models stand for.
Three Tiers of CPO Ford Certifications
The Ford Certified Pre-Owned program offers three levels of assurance: Blue Certified, Gold Certified and EV Certified. While every CPO Ford includes a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™, each certification tier has unique standards relating to which cars qualify and the grade of inspection they are subjected to.
01Ford Gold Certified
The strictest tier of the Ford CPO program is known as Ford Blue Advantage™ Gold Certified. Cars in this tier must undergo a rigorous 172-point inspection before being Gold Certified, and they must also be newer than six years old and have less than 80,000 miles.1
02Ford Blue Certified
If you buy a Ford Blue Advantage™ Blue Certified Super Duty® or Bronco, you’re getting a vehicle that underwent a 139-point inspection and is newer than 10 years old. As for mileage, cars with under 150,000 miles can qualify, though many of our Blue Certified CPO Ford models have significantly less on the odometer than this threshold, as you’ll see when shopping our CPO Ford inventory.1
03Ford EV Certified
Does Ford certify electric vehicles as part of their CPO offerings? The answer is yes, through the Ford Blue Advantage™ EV Certified program. Qualifying F-150 Lightning and Mustang Mach-E models must pass a 127-point inspection, have less than 80,000 miles and be newer than six years old.1
By setting such a high bar for cars to be validated as either Ford EV, Blue or Gold Certified, shoppers can trust that their CPO Escape or Bronco Sport is ready to deliver years of reliable service. Shop online or visit our South Carolina Ford dealership today to learn more.
Ford CPO Warranty Benefits
When you choose to buy a Certified Pre-Owned Ford in Travelers Rest, you're not just getting a vehicle; you're getting a bundle of Ford CPO benefits that provide unmatched value. In fact, all Ford Blue Advantage™ models --including top picks like a CPO F-150 or Expedition -- have a limited warranty that covers more than 1,000 components.
How long this warranty is available for depends on the CPO tier of an individual vehicle. For instance, qualifying EV and Gold Certified cars are backed by this coverage for up to 12,000 miles or 12 months, while Blue Certified cars are covered for up to 90 days or 4,000 miles. Other warranties may also be available depending on whether you buy a Blue, Gold or EV Certified Ford near Greer.1
