Why Certified Pre-Owned?

Looking for a used vehicle with extra peace of mind? At Dyer Auto Group, our Certified Pre-Owned inventory gives you a higher standard than typical used cars. Each brand’s program includes strict eligibility, a detailed inspection, and factory-backed warranty coverage—helping you save on price without sacrificing confidence.

Because every automaker has its own certification requirements, this page breaks down the key benefits of certified pre-owned Chevrolet, Kia, Subaru, and Mazda models in one place so you can compare easily and choose what fits your life.

A Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is not just any used car. To earn “Certified” status, it must:

• Meet the brand’s age/mileage eligibility rules

• Pass a multi-point inspection by factory-trained technicians

• Be reconditioned to manufacturer standards

• Confidence in the vehicle’s history and condition
