What Makes a Honda Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle Different?

Not every used car for sale earns the Honda Certified Used Vehicle designation. Each vehicle must meet strict eligibility requirements and pass a comprehensive inspection before it qualifies for the program, so you can shop with confidence from day one. Each Honda Certified Pre-Owned (HCPO) vehicle is backed by its own warranty coverage and perks that a standard used vehicle simply cannot match.

Every Honda Certified Used Vehicle (HCUV) undergoes a rigorous, Honda Canada mandated multipoint mechanical and appearance inspection conducted by factory-trained technicians, ensuring any identified issue is addressed using only genuine Honda parts.1

Qualifying vehicles come backed by a 7-year or 160,000-kilometre Powertrain Warranty -- extending the original factory powertrain coverage by an extra 2 years or 60,000 kilometres -- with available upgrades to Honda Plus Extended Warranty plans for broader protection.1

For added peace of mind, every purchase includes a 7-day or 1,000-kilometre exchange privilege,1 giving you the flexibility to exchange your vehicle for another eligible HCPO model on our lot if you are not completely satisfied.
