These are high-quality pre-owned models that our customers love, as they allow them to buy at a discount without sacrificing power, comfort, technology, or capability. Buying is also more convenient with CarBravo, since you can do it all online!
However, we'll still always be happy to greet you here at our dealership. Our sales reps can show you our wide inventory of CarBravo models and describe the ins and outs of various options so you can choose the right one. You’ll leave ready to get the most out of your next Certified Used Vehicle.
We can help with financing and servicing, too, once you have your next Certified Used Vehicle; we’re proud to be a dealership that helps its customers in all automotive areas. You’ll want to make your move quickly, though, as CarBravo's Certified Used Vehicles tend to be in high demand, given that buyers often discover that CarBravo is a source of smart investments.
An Overview: CarBravo's Criteria for Certification
CarBravo is a program from General Motors that accepts vehicles of all types, ranging from sedans to trucks, and certifies them after they go through a rigorous inspection and reconditioning process. The goal of CarBravo is to give buyers of used vehicles more confidence in their next automotive purchase.
This certification program helps our customers feel more secure in their vehicles, given that buying a Certified Used Vehicle is essentially like acquiring a like-new vehicle at the price of a used one.
To be granted CarBravo's primary certification, a candidate vehicle must meet many benchmarks, the most crucial of which are that it must:
- Pass a 126-point inspection
- Be fewer than ten years old
- Have fewer than 100,000 miles
- Be without outstanding recalls
- Have a clean title and history
Only if a vehicle is able to meet these requirements can it be granted CarBravo's certification. This is a key reason we are so proud to offer models with this label: providing Certified Used Vehicles empowers our buyers, enabling them to get more for less while maintaining peace of mind.
BravoBudget: A Less Stringent Alternative
BravoBudget is similar to CarBravo, but it is a tier of this program for slightly older vehicles. For folks looking for a model more than ten years old, either due to a style preference or cost, BravoBudget is the way to go. It still provides a lot of certainty, as candidate vehicles must:
- Pass a 62-point inspection
- Be between ten and fifteen years old
- Have between 100,000 and 150,000 miles
- Be without outstanding recalls
- Have a clean title and history
With BravoBudget, you'll be able to buy even a much older vehicle with greater confidence.
How to Find Your Next Certified Used Vehicle
Selecting your next ride with CarBravo is easy, as you can just click on the "Shop CarBravo" option in our "Pre-Owned" drop-down menu. You will then be taken to a page where you can browse the Certified Used Vehicles currently available through CarBravo. You’ll want to come back to this webpage regularly, too, as your search goes on, since this inventory is always evolving.
You can perform the entire shopping and purchase processes from home and even get home delivery of your vehicle. CarBravo keeps this all quite convenient for you, as we know that your time is precious. You can also get a trade-in offer on your current vehicle and use its cash value to cover part or all of the down payment on the vehicle you want to acquire from CarBravo.
We are, of course, more than happy to chat with you in person, too, if you’re not sure which Certified Used Vehicle would be your best bet. Our sales reps will talk with you to get a sense of your routine and what you generally do on the road, and we will then point you to a couple of ideal Certified Used Vehicles that could upgrade your time behind the wheel and help you succeed at every mission.
The Many Benefits of Shopping Via CarBravo
Opting for a Certified Used Vehicle through CarBravo will afford you more choices than sticking with the latest models in one brand's lineup. You’re able to select from older models with designs and features that might be more to your taste. Since they’ll be CarBravo-certified, you’ll be able to buy what fits your style while knowing it’s a quality ride—and, of course, you’ll love the discounted price!
In addition to meeting rigorous benchmarks, CarBravo offers a host of other benefits that set its vehicles apart from the rest of the pre-owned vehicle market. For instance, you get a one-month trial of OnStar and a three-month trial of SiriusXM. To give you further confidence, there is also a 10-day, 500-mile vehicle exchange window.
All CarBravo vehicles receive a Limited Bumper-to-Bumper Warranty for 12 months or 12,000 miles, with no deductible. This warranty is incredibly wide-ranging; it covers the major powertrain components, such as the engine and transmission, as well as the brakes, suspension, battery, and more. BravoBudget vehicles receive a Limited Powertrain Warranty for 30 days or 1,000 miles. These warranties are always a strong selling point for CarBravo customers.
