For many years, there were two options when it came to shopping for a vehicle: either you bought a brand-new model with the latest features and warranty coverage, or you purchased a used one to save money. Today, residents shopping for a used Honda for sale near Union City have the opportunity to take advantage of both these avenues at the same time by visiting Hudson Honda for a vehicle that's part of Honda's Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) program.
Honda has a reputation for offering its drivers much of both style and substance. At Hudson Honda, shopping from our selection of CPO Honda vehicles combines both purchasing routes with manufacturer-backed warranty coverage and lower prices that allow you to save upfront. The advantages of Honda's program are numerous, and Union City drivers have the opportunity to reap them at Hudson Honda.
What Does Certified Pre-Owned Mean?
Certified Pre-Owned models are used vehicles that have seen little wear, and our technicians have reconditioned them before being offered for sale. Each brand has its own CPO program with varying levels of quality assurance in the reconditioning process. Unlike the typical used vehicle, those in a CPO program come with warranty coverage similar to that of brand-new vehicles. Honda's program has many advantages from which Union City drivers can benefit.
Getting a CPO model is one of the best ways to get behind the wheel of an affordable means of transportation while enjoying the fresh powertrain and many recent technologies that come with newer vehicles. Paying less and getting more is a combination that Union City drivers can benefit from when they shop for used models at Hudson Honda.
Two Classes of CPO Designations
The mark of a good brand is that it offers a variety of options to its customers. This is certainly the case with Honda, as it has two unique CPO programs that have varying levels of warranty coverage and other included benefits. The first designation is "HondaTrue Used," wherein high-quality pre-owned vehicles are up to ten years old (with no prerequisites for mileage); these come with powertrain coverage that lasts for the first 100 days or 5,000 miles, as well as a bumper-to-bumper warranty that lasts for that same amount of time. HondaTrue Used vehicles are also eligible for a complimentary oil change within the first year of ownership.
Union City residents who are in the market for a used vehicle with fewer miles traveled and more intricate warranty coverage can opt for the HondaTrue Certified program. In order for a vehicle to be designated "HondaTrue Certified," it must be no more than five years old and have traveled less than 80,000 miles. The warranty coverage is also more extensive, with Honda covering the powertrain for a period of seven years or 100,000 miles, as well as a bumper-to-bumper warranty that adds two years after the expiration of the New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Another advantage of the HondaTrue Certified program is that you get two complimentary oil changes within the first year or 12,000 miles.
Vehicles that are a part of Honda's CPO programs have many incentives that they share. Both programs offer roadside assistance and concierge service, as well as a three-day exchange policy if you're not completely satisfied with your purchase. Union City drivers who purchase a CPO Honda vehicle from either program will also be eligible for a 90-day trial subscription to SiriusXM. Both programs also include a complimentary CARFAX report that will detail the complete history of your purchase and include records of any major repairs or accidents.
At Hudson Honda, we carry multiple offerings from both of Honda's CPO programs, and our sales team is on hand to help you choose which one will benefit you most. If you have questions or concerns, we'll take the time to answer and address each one.
The Perks of Buying a CPO Honda
As we mentioned earlier, each brand offers its customers a variation of a CPO program. With CPO options growing in popularity among consumers and potential buyers, Honda has once again proved its ability to adapt to an ever-growing marketplace. It offers perks with its CPO programs that drivers would be keen to take advantage of.
One of the biggest benefits of buying within the Honda CPO program is the amount of detail that goes into inspecting a vehicle from top to bottom and replacing any parts that are no longer up to snuff. During this inspection process, we use genuine OEM Honda parts to replace any faulty or outdated ones, ensuring modern quality with your potential purchase. Honda's inspection covers 182 individual points on the vehicle and also includes a complimentary inspection report to ensure complete and total transparency with the buyer.
One of Honda's biggest competitors, Toyota, has an inspection of 160 points, whereas Nissan only inspects 167. Chevy is the closest to coming near Honda's inspection with 172 points. When it comes to any pre-owned vehicle, every aspect of the structural and internal integrity matters most. Honda covers more bases to ensure the quality of what it sells.
Union City drivers who are interested in the benefits of Honda's extended bumper-to-bumper warranty will be pleased to note that this coverage is far more than both Toyota and Chevy's, which only last for a year or 12,000 miles. Honda offers roadside assistance during this duration to ensure you can travel knowing you're well-covered. Nissan only extends the courtesy of roadside assistance until the conclusion of the original warranty, and Chevy lumps in its protection with the powertrain warranty. The complimentary oil changes that Honda offers are missing from both Toyota and Nissan's CPO programs. From more courtesies to comprehensive warranty coverage, taking advantage of Honda's CPO program is an excellent choice for Union City drivers.
Experience Relief With HondaCare
The protection that Honda offers by way of its impressive CPO program affords Union City drivers the peace of mind that they deserve. The purchase of a Honda CPO vehicle also gives you the opportunity to extend its already impressive coverage with the optional HondaCare; this comprehensive plan gives you protection on more items for longer durations—for instance, most mechanical and electrical components are covered for eight years or 120,000 miles.
HondaCare offers multiple protection plans that cover items such as key replacement, windshield protection, and asset protection in the event of missing property. It even covers wheel replacement and dent repair that might occur in a collision. There are several other incentives and packages available with HondaCare; we can discuss them with you at the time of your purchase to better gauge what kinds of benefits you'd like.
