When it comes to purchasing a used vehicle, it’s essential to find one that offers reliability, safety, and value. Cochran Cars in Youngstown, Ohio, excels in providing customers with an exceptional selection of certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicles. These CPO cars offer many advantages over non-certified used cars, including warranty coverage, thorough inspections, and additional perks. Let’s explore the benefits of choosing a certified used vehicle from Cochran and how to make an informed decision when comparing CPO and non-certified used cars.

Our Safety Promise

At Cochran Cars, we understand the importance of reliability in a used vehicle. That’s why our CPO vehicles undergo rigorous inspections to ensure the proper functioning of all car mechanisms, resistance to wear and tear, and clean exterior and interior conditions. When you choose a CPO car from our inventory, you can trust that it has been thoroughly inspected and refurbished to meet high-quality standards.

Comprehensive Warranty Coverage for Peace of Mind

One significant advantage of choosing a CPO vehicle is the comprehensive warranty coverage. With our Sweeney Certified Platinum Warranty for vehicles with under 80,000 miles, you’ll enjoy one year or 12,000 miles of coverage, complimentary rental benefits, towing services, roadside assistance, and travel expense reimbursements.

Perks and Additional Benefits for Preferred Customers

As a bonus for choosing a certified platinum used car from Cochran, you’ll receive a complimentary one-year membership in our Preferred Customer Program. This program offers free oil changes, tire rotations, and tire change services throughout the membership period. You’ll enjoy these additional perks and benefits only if you choose a certified used vehicle from our dealership.

Comparing CPO vs. Non-Certified Used Cars

When shopping for a used vehicle, it’s essential to understand the differences between CPO and non-certified used cars.

CPO Vehicles:

  • Sold by franchised new-car dealers of the same brand.
  • Used gently, accident-free, low-mileage, and only a few years old.
  • Passed pre-sale inspection and refurbishment process.
  • Came with warranty coverage backed by the original manufacturer.
  • Priced higher due to warranty, inspection, and refurbishment.
  • Offered with special financing programs for buyers with excellent credit.

Non-Certified Used Cars:

  • Sold by various dealerships, independent used car lots, and private-party sellers.
  • Might not have been inspected and refurbished before the sale.
  • Came without warranty coverage unless purchased separately.
  • Priced lower than CPO vehicles.
  • Offered to buyers who are responsible for any problems or mechanical breakdowns after purchase.

When deciding between a CPO and a non-certified used car, consider factors such as warranty coverage, inspection and refurbishment process, pricing, and financing options. Weighing these factors will help you determine which option best suits your needs and budget.
