Certified Manufacturer's Warranty

Every Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle features a minimum 3-month/5,000 km limited Certified Pre-Owned warranty, whichever comes first.

Depending on the age and kilometers of your selected vehicle, you’ll either get:

1. The remaining manufacturer's New Vehicle Limited warranty (Base Warranty coverage, no deductible) and/or
2. Coverage under the Certified Pre-Owned Warranty.

If your budget permits, you can extend or upgrade to an even more comprehensive Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle Protection Plan for added peace of mind.

You’re covered for most major repair expenses for the term of your warranty.

1 A $100 deductible (plus applicable provincial taxes) per repair visit will apply. If the same covered part causes an assembly to fail again, no deductible will apply to the subsequent failure.

2 Warranty is fully transferable should you sell the vehicle while still under the warranty period.

Exchange Privilege

If for any reason you're not completely satisfied with your Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle, you can exchange it within 30 days or 2,500 kilometers — whichever comes first — from the date of purchase for any other eligible Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle.

If the purchase price of the replacement vehicle is less than the purchase price of the vehicle being returned, you'll receive credit for the difference. If the purchase price of the replacement vehicle is more, you simply pay the difference.

Eligibility

Unless indicated at time of sale all Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles are eligible for the Exchange Privilege during the first 30 days or 2,500 kilometres of ownership. However, the exchanged vehicle must be returned in the condition in which it was delivered to the customer, without damage or excessive wear and tear.*

Vehicle Inspection

Every vehicle returned under the Exchange Privilege will be inspected for damage and excessive wear and tear. If non-warranty repairs equal to or greater than $300 have been performed or are necessary, the vehicle is not eligible to be returned. If less than $300, the damage repair estimate will be deducted from the credit amount applied to the returned vehicle.

Valuation Of The Returned Vehicle

The "Agreed Upon Exchange Value" will be used in determining the refund value to be applied to the replacement vehicle.

Exchange And Wait Provision

If a customer exchanges a vehicle under the Exchange Privilege and waits for a replacement vehicle instead of choosing one from the dealer's available inventory, the selling dealer will not provide alternate transportation or allow a customer to keep the original vehicle while the replacement vehicle is secured.
