Used Car FAQs

With people realizing the numerous benefits of used cars, their demand in the market is growing exponentially. However, before investing in a used car, oftentimes people have more than a few questions in mind. Below are answers to the most common of these questions.

How do certified pre-owned cars differ from traditional used cars?

Certified pre-owned cars are used cars that come with more comprehensive assurances. Some dealerships are affiliated with manufacturers to sell used cars. And these cars go through rigorous testing and maintenance processes to make sure that buyers are getting a quality product.

Certified pre-owned cars also come with factory stamps, warranty, and additional features to provide better reliability to the buyer. While a certified pre-owned car can be expensive in comparison to a traditional used car, they are usually the better choice overall.

Is buying used cars a good option?

Buying used cars comes with many benefits. To begin with, you save a lot of money, not just in the purchase of the car, you also pay less money in registration and insurance as well.

In addition, new cars tend to lose their value quickly during the first few months of ownership, thereby providing lower resale value. Used cars, on the other hand, offer lower depreciation, which allows you to resell the vehicle with minimum losses.

Why should you choose dealership over independent sellers when buying a car?

Dealerships offer higher assurance of their products as opposed to normal sellers. They take their market reputation very seriously and provide customers with great services to make sure they generate customer loyalty.

Along with getting a reliable car, you are also likely to benefit from additional services. A majority of used cars offered by dealerships come with a warranty that allows you to get your car repaired and maintained without taking on any cost.

What is a used car warranty?

A used car warranty is a warranty that caters to used cars and buyers should inquire about this when buying a used car. It can be backed by a dealership or manufacturer. You can find the information regarding the warranty in the "Buyer Guide" of the vehicle.

Before that, check whether or not the manufacturer's warranty is still applicable. If the warranty is still active, check whether or not it is transferable.

Once you have checked the coverage, expiration date, and other details, you can contact the manufacturer to reap its benefits. A standard manufacturer warranty lasts for around three years; however, powertrain warranties often come with a longer duration.

Can you get financing for a used car purchase?

Yes, you can finance the purchase of used cars by the dealership, bank, or other financial providers. The rates of which will depend on the provider as well as your credit score.

When looking through financing options, make sure you evaluate the rates and offerings of each provider and compare them prior to making a decision.
