What Is The Certified Pre-Owned BMW Process?

Certified Pre-Owned BMW vehicles are popular among our Irvine, Laguna Beach, and beyond drivers for a number of reasons. Not only are CPO models affordable used vehicles, but they're like new and come with a long list of benefits and bonuses.

How Does A Used BMW Become Certified Pre-Owned?

The process to become a CPO vehicle is extensive and meticulous. We want to ensure that every Certified Pre-Owned BMW car or SAV earns the many benefits that it receives under the CPO name. While we, here at Irvine BMW, inspect every used car, truck, SUV, or van that's brought to our lot, a Certified Pre-Owned BMW will receive extra attention to earn the prestigious CPO badge. This process includes three steps.

Step #1: Eligibility

In order for the BMW car or SAV to even be considered, it must meet the eligibility requirements. These include:

• Must be a BMW vehicle
• Must have more than 300 miles but less than 60,000 miles
• Must pass a CARFAX™ or AutoCheck® vehicle history report
• Must have genuine BMW parts and accessories
• Must have up-to-date maintenance

Step #2: Inspection

Once it's been deemed as eligible, the BMW vehicle is then put through a 360-degree vehicle inspection. This is where our team of certified BMW technicians will search through ever inch of the vehicle to ensure it meets the high CPO standards. The vehicle will also be road tested and have any necessary repairs performed.

Step #3: Benefits

If the BMW earns the CPO badge, it's then given a plethora of benefits. Not only does it get a competitive used car price, but it also receives:

• BMW Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty (after the new warranty expires)
• BMW Assist™ Safety Plan
• 24/7 Roadside Assistance
• And Many Other Benefits!
