AutoTrader: Lexus L/Certified is the Top Pre-Owned Luxury Program in the USA


Lexus L/Certified is the top pre-owned luxury vehicle program in the USA, according to a new study from AutoTrader:

Lexus’s CPO program “L/Certified” won top honors primarily due to its excellent warranty along with other alluring benefits. L/Certified offers limited bumper-to-bumper coverage for up to six years and unlimited mileage from the vehicle’s original sale date—a risky proposition, but one that shows the brand is willing to firmly stand behind its vehicles.

Lexus’s program boasts no deductible for covered repairs, meaning that owners won’t have to pay a penny if their cars suffer a warranty claim. Icing on the cake is the fact that Lexus’s program touts complimentary maintenance covering the next four factory-recommended services for two years or 20,000 miles­—a small benefit, but one that’s certainly worth mentioning.

Certified pre-owned vehicles are subjected to an extensive inspection defined by the manufacturer and must meet a variety of guidelines. Once certified, these vehicles come with a manufacturer-backed warranty.
