What Makes a CPO Vehicle Certified?
Eligibility Requirements
Not just any Mercedes vehicle will qualify to be Certified Pre-Owned. To even be considered, Mercedes must ensure that it meets following requirements:
- Be less than 6 years old
- Have less than 75,000 miles
- Be serviced according to schedule
- Include a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report


It Passes a 165+ Point Inspection
The vehicle inspection starts with the exterior, making sure the structure and appearance are up to our gold standards. It continues with a full interior review looking at the finishes, flooring, seat belts, and that is just the beginning.
Our Mercedes Benz certified technicians check the electrical systems, engine, fluids, filters and transmission. We ensure that the tires are Mercedes-Benz approved, and all recall campaigns and standard services are performed before it hits our showroom.
Road Tested
Our Mercedes Benz dealer technicians evaluate the performance of the steering, brakes, suspension, drive shaft and overall ride quality. Even the noise and vibration levels are monitored to make sure that the experience behind the wheel is smooth, quiet and exactly what you'd expect when you get in your Mercedes.

The Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty
Every Certified Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz is backed by the remaining 4-year/50,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty. Once that expires, the Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty goes into effect, providing an additional 12-months of coverage with unlimited miles. After that, a CPO Extended Limited Warranty is available for one or two years, also with unlimited miles, so you can buy and drive with total confidence.
