You live in Los Angeles, the ultimate automotive playground, where the roar of an engine is often the best soundtrack to cruising down the highway. When you consider adding true muscle to your garage, you face a critical choice: Do you purchase a brand-new high-performance machine, or do you look into an incredibly smart alternative? That alternative is a Certified Pre-owned Dodge muscle car. At Los Angeles Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram, we know the value of both performance and assurance, and a CPO Dodge provides a powerful combination of both.

If you are evaluating purchasing a used Dodge for sale, the certified program changes the entire dynamic. This article will explain exactly why choosing a CPO Dodge from Los Angeles Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram offers you a level of confidence and quality that traditional used car purchases simply cannot match.

The Value Proposition of a Certified Pre-owned Dodge

Unlike just any used vehicle, a CPO Dodge has been carefully inspected and certified to meet the manufacturer’s high standards.

CPO vehicles are an affordable alternative to new vehicles. They are sold only if they are in good condition. Typically, these muscle cars are lightly used, possessing low mileage and very little wear. Choosing a certified pre-owned vehicle versus a simple used vehicle is a personal decision, but cars that do not pass the inspection process are not eligible to be offered as certified pre-owned vehicles. This certification process provides convenience and additional peace of mind.

A true Certified Pre-owned Dodge muscle car provides assurances that are factory-backed. Los Angeles Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is ready to help customers finance a certified pre-owned vehicle across the credit spectrum, meaning there are flexible funding options available for different budgets to help you start your next adventure.

The Rigorous Certification Process

Confidence in your high-performance vehicle starts with knowing its history and condition. Every certified pre-owned Chrysler vehicle—and this applies to the Dodge models we certify—must pass a 125-point inspection.

A trained technician checks every aspect of the vehicle. This inspection covers everything from the wheels and undercarriage to the engine, steering, and paint condition. When necessary, the vehicle is reconditioned. Crucially, this reconditioning utilizes authentic Mopar® parts, which helps ensure that your muscle car functions as well as it appears.

Complete transparency is a core pillar of the Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle Program. You will receive a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™. This report allows you to check for any DMV-reported incidents to confirm your vehicle is in great shape. It is essential that you examine the vehicle history report to confirm you are comfortable with any reported incidents the vehicle may have encountered. Knowing that a factory-authorized technician has already inspected the vehicle is a significant advantage over a third-party warranty situation, which would require a separate inspection.

Factory-Backed Protection and Peace of Mind

When you purchase a Dodge for sale that is CPO, you take added peace of mind on every journey thanks to limited warranty coverage. The difference between a certified pre-owned warranty and a third-party warranty is that the certified pre-owned warranty is backed by our factory. This means the manufacturer puts its name and facilities behind your vehicle.

Your certified pre-owned Dodge muscle car is accompanied by two key warranty coverages:

1. 7-Year/100,000-Mile Powertrain Limited Warranty: This factory-backed warranty goes the distance, delivering peace of mind for the long haul.
2. 3-Month/3,000-Mile Maximum Care Coverage Warranty: This also delivers peace of mind for the long haul.

The coverage provided benefits you even if you decide to sell the car later. Yes, when a certified pre-owned vehicle is sold to a new owner, the certified pre-owned coverage is transferred along with the vehicle. In most states, there is a $50 transfer fee charged when transferring a warranty at the time of a vehicle’s sale.

For maximum vehicle coverage, you can also take advantage of available Lifetime Certified Warranty Upgrades. This warranty upgrade will cover your certified pre-owned vehicle for as long as you own it. When reviewing your purchase, make note of the parts of the vehicle that are covered by your warranty.

Added Benefits of Your Certified Pre-Owned Dodge

The CPO program includes valuable services beyond the vehicle inspection and powertrain warranty.

You ride with confidence thanks to 24-hour Sign-And-Go roadside assistance. This service is available up to $100 per occurrence and includes necessary support like flat-tire service, gas delivery, battery-jump assistance, lockout service, and towing service.

Plus, you can tune in to more than 150 channels for three months with a complimentary 3-month trial subscription to SiriusXM®. Every certified pre-owned vehicle comes with commercial-free music, sports, news, talk, and comedy.

You can also speak with the dealership about trade-in and financing options to make your purchase more affordable. If your current vehicle has solid equity, you can deduct its trade-in value from the cost of your CPO vehicle.
