How a Vehicle Becomes Certified
A Mercedes-Benz must meet these eligibility requirements before it is inspected:
- Model year 6 years or newer
- Fewer than 75,000 miles
- Serviced according to the maintenance schedule
- Includes a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report
A dealer technician then completes a 165+ point inspection. It covers the exterior structure and appearance, the interior, the engine, electrical systems, fluids, filters and transmission, plus a road test of steering, brakes and suspension. Tires must be Mercedes-Benz approved, and recall campaigns and standard services are completed before sale. The 165+ point inspection applies to certain combustion engine models. Different inspection points apply to electric vehicles.
Certified Pre-Owned vs. Standard Pre-Owned
Both are inspected before sale. The difference is coverage. Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned vehicles carry the Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty and added owner benefits. Standard pre-owned Mercedes-Benz models, including those outside the certification window, do not carry that warranty. Additional coverage is available through AutoNation vehicle protection plans.
