Certified Pre-Owned program provides extensive coverage at Friendly Ford
To borrow an often-used phrase in the car business, sometimes the best new vehicle is a used vehicle.
In the case of Friendly Ford at 660 N. Decatur Blvd., the Ford Certified Pre-Owned program offers peace of mind in knowing that a pre-owned sport utility vehicle, car, truck or crossover has undergone a thorough process.
The Ford Certified Pre-Owned 172-point inspection program includes vehicles that are current or five previous model years and have fewer than 80,000 miles.
The program works very well, especially for customers who might be better-suited for a pre-owned vehicle at a lesser cost.
The buyer of the Ford Certified Pre-Owned vehicle also receives the benefit of a strong warranty that includes a 12-month/12,000-mile comprehensive limited warranty coverage, a seven-year/100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty, 24-hour roadside assistance, a full tank of fuel, fresh oil and filter, and new wiper blades at delivery, along with service that is available at any Ford or Lincoln dealer in the 50 states and Canada.
The roadside assistance coverage also includes travel expense reimbursement of up to $500 for up to three days of lodging, meals and a rental vehicle. Additionally, it includes destination expense assistance of up to $75 to cover the emergency cost of a taxi, shuttle or rental car to get to the destination.
Finally, the roadside assistance also covers rental reimbursement of up to $30 per day for up to five days if the vehicle requires overnight mechanical repairs.
The list of covered components is extensive in the warranty package. Also included is a vehicle history report.
Also, the Ford Certified Pre-Owned’s umbrella’s ties to Ford credit include low APRs, flexible terms, special programs and a wide range of financing options for vehicles that qualify for the program.
It is not hard finding employees who praise the Ford program. Dealership Used Car Manager Art Muro is yet another of the many who feel the program is a win-win especially for the customers of Friendly Ford. In fact, he said often times the buyers of a Ford Certified Pre-Owned vehicle become long-time customers of Friendly Ford.
“The FCPO program is the perfect combination,” said Muro, a veteran automobile executive who has deep roots in the business. “It provides a quality pre-owned vehicle with a strong warranty for a price less than a new car.”
