Honda Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles | Warranty Overview

Buying a Honda certified pre-owned vehicle is usually a safe bet; Hondas are known for durability and reliability. However, breakdowns and accidents are always a reality on the road. An extended warranty can protect your investment and keep your car active for years to come.

We’ll tell you what the Honda CPO warranty covers and how to get the best protection for your Honda at the most affordable price.

Honda CPO Factory Coverage | An Overview

Honda offers limited coverage for certified pre-owned vehicles:

• Powertrain Coverage
  • Limited warranty provides powertrain coverage for 7 years (from original in-service date) or 100,000 miles (whichever occurs first)
• Non-Powertrain Coverage – for vehicles purchased during the limited warranty period
  • Limited warranty provides non-powertrain coverage for 1 year/12,000 for four years (from original in-service date) or 48,000 miles (whichever occurs first)
• Non-Powertrain Coverage – for vehicles purchased after the new vehicle limited warranty has expired
  • Limited warranty provides non-powertrain coverage for 1 year (from date when CPO vehicle is delivered to the owner) or 12,000 miles (whichever occurs first)

What’s Missing from Honda’s CPO Coverage

Note that many repairs are not covered by Honda’s factory warranty, including:

    • Clutches,
    • Brakes,
    • Batteries
    • Exhaust system
• Body, interior and glass
  • The manufacturer’s warranty does not protect your Honda against any defects to your car’s appearance, including the:
    • Body parts and trim,
    • Upholstery,
    • Glass,
    • Mirrors,
    • Wheels
    • And other items
