Looking at the Buick Certified Pre-Owned Program
One of the best ways to save money on the purchase of a car involves buying a used model. To cut back on concerns about purchasing a used car, some may lean towards Buick's Certified Pre-Owned program. The Buick CPO program has many confidence-building attributes, two of which stand out.
The age and use of the approved vehicles aren't too dramatic. For one, a car cannot be more than six years old, and it cannot have more than 75,000 miles. Since the usage is low, the car won't likely suffer wear and tear. Even if there is a problem, the vehicle goes through a thorough inspection and undergoes reconditioning.
The Buick CPO program also comes with roadside assistance. This way, if something goes wrong and your car breaks down or suffers a flat, there's a service to call for help.
