How to Avoid Scams and Lemons: Consider Certified Used

If shopping for a used Toyota – from a dealer or private party – makes you second guess the trustworthiness of the seller and the reliability of the vehicle, there may be a better solution. Look into  a Toyota dealer who also operates a Toyota Certified Used Car program. These programs are operated jointly by Toyota and the dealer, and guarantee the quality, condition, and future long life of the car, truck, crossover, or SUV in the program.

What to Expect from Toyota Certified Used Vehicles

• According to Autodata Corp., over 2 million have been sold in America
• 3 month or 3000 mile Comprehensive Warranty
• 7 year or 100,000 mile Limited Powertrain Warranty
• 7 year or 100,000 mile Roadside Assistance
• 160 point Quality Assurance Inspection
• CARFAX Vehicle History Report

Eligibility Requirements:

1. Must be within 6 years of current model year
2. Less than 85, 000 miles

The Big Picture

Toyota and Toyota dealers find the best cars for these programs, with most coming from 2 or 3 year leases or from rental fleets.  You get a clean, undamaged vehicle that has passed a rigorous inspection and is guaranteed. With attractive interest rates, additional perks, and the security of a warranty, buying Toyota Certified Used is an excellent choice for peace of mind.
