For a Toyota car to enter into the Toyota Certified Pre-Owned program, it must first undergo the rigorous Toyota certification process. Understanding this process can provide you extra peace of mind and confidence in your Toyota Certified Pre-Owned vehicle purchase, and our team of friendly dealers at Hall Toyota Virginia Beach is happy to explain what it takes to get certified and how these vehicles set themselves apart.
Strict Multi-Point Inspection
First, every vehicle must pass a multi-point inspection and review of its CARFAX® history before it can qualify as part of the Toyota Certified Pre-Owned program. The certification begins with a thorough inspection of the vehicle completed by factory-trained technicians. This comprehensive inspection covers every aspect of the vehicle, including but not limited to the following:
- Audio and alarm system
- Braking system
- Engine compartment
- Fuel cell components
- Interior condition and appearance
- Steering system
- Transmission system
- Battery system
- Exterior condition
- Tires and suspension system
Any issues or deficiencies are identified and addressed to ensure that the vehicle meets the stringent quality standards set by the Toyota brand.
Reconditioning
After the initial inspection, any necessary repairs or maintenance are performed using genuine Toyota parts. This reconditioning process ensures that the vehicle is in top-notch condition and ready to deliver reliable performance for years. From the car’s brake pads to its fluids and filters, every detail is meticulously checked and restored to ensure optimal functionality and safety.
CARFAX® Vehicle History Report
Finally, every Toyota Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle comes with a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report. This includes a list of any damage or accidents, the number of previous owners, service records, and more.
