What Makes Toyota Certified Used Vehicles Different

A Toyota Certified Used Vehicle is not simply a pre-owned Toyota with a different label. Vehicles must meet Toyota's certification requirements and undergo a detailed inspection before receiving certified status.

Toyota divides its certified inventory into Gold and Silver certification categories, with coverage varying by certification level. This gives Lynchburg shoppers another factor to consider alongside model, mileage, age, features, and price.

What Toyota's 160-Point Inspection Checks

Toyota Gold Certified vehicles undergo a 160-point inspection as part of the certification process.

Inspection categories include:

• Braking system
• Engine compartment
• Steering system
• Transmission and transaxle
• Tires and suspension

Technicians also examine areas such as the vehicle's exterior and interior condition, battery system, lighting systems, instrument panel and electronics, HVAC system, frame and underbody, trunk compartment, and applicable hybrid components.

The process includes specific standards in several areas. For example, brake pads or shoes must have at least 50% wear remaining, while tires must have a minimum of 5/32-inch tread depth remaining across the tread width. The four tires must also meet Toyota's requirements regarding brand, model, size, tread design, speed rating, and load rating.

Vehicle History Information Included With Certification

Every Toyota Certified Used Vehicle comes with a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report at no additional cost. The certification process also requires checking for outstanding Special Service Campaigns.

When evaluating a certified pre-owned Toyota at Berglund Toyota, review this information alongside the vehicle's certification inspection and ask about anything you want clarified before purchasing.

Warranty Coverage With Toyota Certification

Toyota Certified Used Vehicles receive warranty coverage based on their certification category. Coverage begins on the date of purchase, and Toyota provides a $0 deductible on covered component repairs or replacements under the applicable warranty.

Gold certification includes a Limited Comprehensive Warranty. This coverage applies to qualifying repairs or the replacement of components that fail under normal use due to a defect in materials or workmanship.

Toyota also provides Limited Powertrain Warranty coverage for both Gold and Silver Certified vehicles:

• Gold certification provides coverage for seven years or 100,000 total vehicle miles, whichever comes first
• Silver certification provides coverage for 12 months or 12,000 miles, whichever comes first
• Coverage includes major engine and transmission components, as well as internally lubricated parts
• Travel protection can provide lodging and meal reimbursement when more than 150 miles from home
• Substitute transportation reimbursement is available while the certified vehicle undergoes a covered repair

Toyota states that this coverage is transferable at no cost, which may provide additional value if you sell the vehicle while qualifying coverage remains.

Roadside Assistance With Toyota Certification

Toyota Certified Pre-Owned buyers receive 24-hour roadside assistance beginning on the date of their Toyota Certified Used Vehicle purchase. Roadside assistance can help when an unexpected issue interrupts your commute, weekend plans, or road trip.

Available assistance includes:

• Changing a flat tire using a properly inflated spare
• Attempting a jump start
• Unlocking the vehicle after a lockout
• Towing to the nearest Toyota dealership after a mechanical breakdown or collision
• Providing gasoline if the vehicle runs out of fuel

Certified Pre-Owned Toyota Hybrid Coverage

Toyota certification also includes provisions for qualifying hybrid vehicles. For Toyota Certified Used Vehicles from the 2020 model year forward, qualifying hybrid-related components are covered for eight years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first, beginning from the vehicle's original date of first use when sold new.

The hybrid vehicle battery warranty extends for 10 years or 150,000 miles, whichever comes first, from the vehicle's original date of first use when sold new. Toyota directs owners to the applicable Owner's Warranty and Maintenance Guide for complete details.
