If you’re shopping for a 2019 Lincoln Navigator, one major decision you will have to make is whether to buy pre-owned or certified pre-owned (CPO). The 2019 Navigator is a vehicle model that is capable of standing the test of time, but is the extra assurance of quality provided by certification worth the extra cost? Let’s take a look.
Pre-owned vs. CPO
Believe it or not, there are substantial differences between a pre-owned and a certified pre-owned vehicle. Pre-owned vehicles are usually sourced from trade-ins from our customers, but a select bunch of vehicles will progress to the certification process. Certification means that the pre-owned vehicle in question is of exceptional quality and can provide drivers with a higher-quality experience during their rides.
Lincoln Certification
The process a vehicle undergoes to achieve Lincoln certification is quite involved. Vehicles must pass a lengthy 200-point inspection that takes technicians through the inner workings of the vehicle. Any parts that do not pass are either repaired or replaced with a factory-authorized part.
The vehicle’s history is also thoroughly examined via the CarFax® Vehicle History Report to ensure it has not been involved in any major accidents that would disqualify it from certification.
Is It Worth It?
If you’re looking to invest in a long-term vehicle, then a certified pre-owned 2019 Lincoln Navigator is definitely the way to go. Certified pre-owned vehicles tend to perform better in the long run, due to their refurbishment and extended warranty.
If you’re still uncertain about whether to shop certified or not, be sure to reach out to a member of the Woodhouse Lincoln team for more information. Ultimately, before an informed decision can be made, both options must be taken out for a test drive. Stop by Woodhouse Lincoln today to take yours!
