Kia CPO Limited Powertrain Warranty

Every Certified Pre-Owned Kia vehicle on our lot has passed a rigorous 150-Point Quality Assurance Inspection which examines everything from engine components to the quality of the interior upholstery. This means that anyone who buys one of these certified Kia models can be assured that the vehicle has been carefully examined for any flaws. In addition, a certified used Kia vehicle comes with a 10-year/100,000-mile Certified Pre-Owned Limited Powertrain Warranty. Should the worst happen, and your car break down, you will be able to get repairs made with little hassle.

This inspection and warranty take a lot of the risk out of purchasing a used vehicle. Added to that, most certified used vehicles have a low mileage and a recent model year. This means that the latest features like the Kia UVO infotainment system may be available.

Other Advantages of a Kia Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle

Certified used Kia vehicles also come with other advantages, like a 10-Year Unlimited Mileage Roadside Assistance Plan, Towing/Rental/Travel Breakdown benefits, and additional available maintenance and vehicle protection services that can meet the needs of any new Kia owner.
