Buying Certified Pre-Owned Ford Vehicles
The members of Southern California Ford Dealers understand that buying a new car is not always an option. If that sounds like your current situation, then a certified pre-owned Ford vehicle is a wonderful choice. Unlike other pre-owned cars, trucks, and SUVs, a Ford Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is fully inspected and protected by the experts at Ford. In case you have any doubts, we thought it would be helpful to go over all the benefits of buying a certified pre-owned Ford vehicle.
172-Point Inspection
When you buy a pre-owned vehicle, you don't always know what you are getting. Thankfully, with a Ford Certified Pre-Owned vehicle that is never the case due to our 172-point inspection plan. Before you get behind the wheel of your Ford vehicle it will go through this exhaustive plan that includes a wide variety of checks and inspections including:
Vehicle History
Underhood
Road Test
Hybrid
Vehicle Exterior
Underbody
Vehicle Interior
Convenience
Vehicle
If your vehicle doesn't pass any of the 172 points, that item or part will be replaced or repaired. This guarantees you receive a fully inspected car that you can drive with confidence.

Vehicle History Report
It is important to note that Ford won't even consider certifying a pre-owned vehicle unless it is less than 6-model years old and has fewer than 80,000 miles on the odometer. Once a vehicle is considered ready for inspection, we use an independent third-party company to create a history report. This report is part of our 172-point inspection process and checks for a whole host of background information like fire damage, odometer issues, flooding, frame damage, and vehicle title history. When you go to pick up any of our pre-owned Ford vehicles, you can request this report for free.
