Certified Warranty Details
160 Point Inspection
At Toyota, only the best of the best Toyota used cars are chosen to be Toyota Certified Used Vehicles. When we choose a Toyota used car for certification, we have to do a little investigative work. Not only do we put each Toyota used car through an exhaustive 160 Point Quality Assurance Inspection, but we also run a CARFAX Vehicle History Report to ensure it's worthy of the Toyota Certification process. Then, each car is reconditioned to Toyota's exacting standards by factory-trained Toyota Technicians. We want the cars to look and feel as new as possible and we know you do too. We believe this helps maintain the value, as well as creates pride in ownership of Toyota Certified Used Vehicles.

Roadside Assistance
No matter which Toyota Certified Used Vehicle you purchase, you get the added security of 24-hour Roadside Assistance.

So if you're in the market to buy a used car, consider a Toyota Certified Used Vehicle -- quality Toyota used cars combined with Toyota Certification, vehicle history, and roadside assistance.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Can all Toyotas be Certified?
A. No. First, the Toyota must have less than 85,000 miles on the odometer, and can only be the current model or six model years back. Additionally, the vehicle must have a Vehicle History Report run on it, and it must pass a comprehensive 160 Point Quality Assurance Inspection. These requirements ensure that only the best of the best are eligible for Toyota Certification.
Q. Where can I purchase a Toyota Certified Used Vehicle?
A. Toyota Certified Used Vehicles are available exclusively from your Toyota dealers.
Q. What is a Vehicle History Report and how does it work?
A. Currently, Vehicle History Reports (VHR) are available to auto auctions, dealers and the general public, and are highly recommended for anyone in the market to purchase a used vehicle. At Toyota, we go a step further by requiring a VHR be run on each Toyota before it can become a Certified Used Vehicle. With a VHR we can tell if a vehicle has had major structural damage, been previously declared a total loss or has any odometer discrepancies. The VHR also helps to protect the integrity of the Toyota Certified process by disqualifying any vehicle that does not meet our high standards.
Q. What is Roadside Assistance?
A. Roadside Assistance is a complimentary 7-year/100,000-mile (from original date of first use when purchased as new) 24-hour roadside service that comes with each Toyota Certified Used Vehicle.
Services provided include:
 |
Towing up to $100 for mechanical breakdown or collision recovery to the nearest Toyota dealership/repair facility |
 |
Flat tire changes |
 |
Jump starts |
 |
Lockout service |
 |
Gas deliveries (does not include payment for the gas) |
Q. Is the Toyota Certified Used Vehicle Limited Powertrain Warranty transferable to a new owner?
A. Yes. The Limited Powertrain Warranty is transferable to the subsequent owner at no charge.
Q. How long is the Toyota Certified Used Vehicle Warranty in effect?
A. Your Certified Warranty expires at the earlier of seven years (from original date of first use when purchased as new) or when your odometer reaches 100,000 miles.
Q. Is there special financing available for Toyota Certified Used Vehicles?
A. Yes. There are special financing rates available. Please visit the Toyota Financial Services section of centennialtoyota.com.
