Portland dealer has great selection of certified Hondas

I am sure that everyone has a little hesitation about buying a used car! So that it is for that reason that Honda is proud to carry a certified preowned program. Berlin City Honda, one of your Portland Honda Dealers has a great selection of certified Honda vehicles.

What makes buying a Honda certified vehicle a better choice? Peace of mind! In order for us to certify a Honda vehicle it must meet certain standards. It first must be less than six model years old and have less than 80,000 miles on the odometer. Then it has to go through a very thorough and rigorous 150-point inspection by our well qualified and factory trained technicians.

If a vehicle doesn’t meet our strict criteria, we won’t certify it. It’s that simple! Our inspection for certification eligibility begins before the car, truck or SUV even enters the service department. Our sales managers are very knowledgeable on what is required to qualify a vehicle for certification. So the first thing that takes place when a vehicle is traded in is a visual inspection. They ensure that there is no significant body damage, or evidence that the vehicle has ever been involved in a collision. They then conducted a quick road test of the vehicle to make sure there are no obvious mechanical issues.

Then we pass the vehicle of to our Honda experts; our technicians. This is where the true certification process begins. We conduct a very thorough road test of the vehicle to ensure that brakes, alignment, gauges, and all other drivability aspects of the vehicle are up to par per Honda. They then bring the vehicle back to the shop and conduct a visual inspection of all engine, transmission, and underbody components. If there are any mechanical problems found, your Portland Honda Dealership, Berlin City Honda will take all the necessary steps to replace/fix any of the problems with genuine Honda parts prior to making the vehicle available for display on the lot.

So now that we have given you a broad explanation of what it takes to become a Honda certified vehicle, let’s talk about what the benefits are to owning one.

Thanks to one of the most extensive used-car warranties in the business, every Honda Certified Used Car comes with peace of mind.
