March 14, 2010 , Auburn Hills, Mich. -  As clocks move forward, Chrysler Group LLC’s Certified Pre-owned Vehicle (CPOV) program springs ahead with improvements that bring customers “certified” peace of mind. The program helps customers enjoy more of their daylight hours with a new Web site, more features they want, more Chrysler, Jeep®, Dodge and Ram Truck dealers selling certified pre-owned vehicles and more inventory from which to choose.

Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge and Ram Truck certified pre-owned vehicles offer many benefits, including peace of mind to consumers in the market for a pre-owned vehicle. Chrysler Group CPOV program vehicles have less than 65,000 miles and are less than six model years old. Among the many benefits for consumers purchasing a certified pre-owned vehicle are:

  • A 125-point vehicle inspection with upgraded reconditioning using MOPAR® parts exclusively. MOPAR parts are engineered to the same standard as the original equipment part
  • A Carfax vehicle history report
  • A three-month/3,000 mile Maximum Care Warranty that covers virtually all operational components
  • A six-year/80,000 mile transferable Powertrain Limited Warranty with 24-hour/365-day “sign and go” roadside assistance
  • A three month complimentary SIRIUS satellite radio subscription on equipped vehicles
  • A $35 rental vehicle allowance if the vehicle needs to be in for overnight service
  • A full range of service contracts, including lifetime warranty upgrades (Chrysler Group LLC is the only manufacturer to offer this option)

“Now is the perfect time to benefit from a certified pre-owned vehicle purchase,” said Fred Diaz, President and Chief Executive Officer – Ram Truck Brand and Lead Executive for the Sales Organization, Chrysler Group LLC. “Chrysler Group LLC’s Certified Pre-owned Vehicles take the uncertainty out of purchasing a pre-owned vehicle,” added Diaz. “Our program offers consumers ‘certified’ peace of mind with benefits like a Carfax vehicle history report, 125-point inspection, and some of the best warranty options in the business.”

Certified Pre-owned vehicle sales are growing, and participating Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge and Ram Truck dealers have increased their inventories, resulting in customers having a better selection of vehicles for customers. Customers purchasing a certified pre-owned vehicle reap many of the benefits that new vehicle purchasers receive, such as the ability to service and maintain vehicles at the same point of purchase and the peace of mind that comes with a 125-point inspection and some of the best warranty options in the industry.

“We are excited about, and believe customers will appreciate, the improvements to the program,” said Diaz. “The new Web site, www.certifiedpreowned.chrysler.com, offers a number of features that help customers easily find a vehicle that fits their lifestyle.”
