BMW Certified vs Pre-Owned Cars

The BMW Certified program lets drivers rest assured that their pre-owned vehicle is reliable and high-quality. These models have passed rigorous testing and strict regulations to ensure your peace of mind. Learn about BMW Certified vehicles and how they differ from pre-owned cars at BMW of Silver Spring.

What Are BMW Certified Vehicles?

If you see the BMW Certified designation on a vehicle, that means that it’s been approved by the manufacturer as meeting their highest standards for pre-owned models. As opposed to regular pre-owned vehicles, there are certain requirements the vehicle must meet:

• Five years old or newer
• More than 300 miles but less than 60,000 miles on the odometer
• Up-to-date CARFAX® or AutoCheck® Report

Then, they must undergo a series of tests and inspections to be given this honor. Our BMW team members ensure that every vehicle in this program meets mechanical, body, tire, and brake inspection requirements, among other tests. Then, the vehicle must pass a diagnostic and road test, and be approved by a BMW Certified Technician, a Service Manager, and a BMW Certified Manager.

Extra Perks

A BMW Certified vehicle has several additional benefits over other pre-owned cars. Aside from the extra peace of mind that you’ll get from the detailed 360-degree inspections, you’ll also get a BMW Certified Limited Warranty, giving you comprehensive coverage for up to one year. In addition, you’ll get 24/7 BMW Roadside Assistance for up to six years.
