Used Car Certification Program

CarBravo Certified Used Cars at Central Chevrolet

We're excited to announce that Central Chevrolet is now a CarBravo certified dealer — a General Motors program that brings GM-backed certification to virtually every make and model we sell. Starting in March 2025, up to 90% of our used vehicle inventory will carry full CarBravo certification.

Previously, used vehicles from non-GM brands — Toyota, Honda, Ford, and others — couldn't be certified. With CarBravo, that changes. Whether you're shopping for a Chevrolet, a Honda, or anything in between, you can now buy with the confidence of a GM-backed warranty, competitive financing, and a nationwide service network.

About the Program

What Is CarBravo?

CarBravo is a General Motors used vehicle certification program designed to go beyond traditional GM Certified Pre-Owned, which only covers Chevrolet, GMC, and Buick vehicles. CarBravo extends that same level of quality assurance to nearly every make and model.

As a CarBravo dealer, Central Chevrolet can certify Toyotas, Hondas, Fords, and other non-GM vehicles that meet program requirements. Each certified vehicle must pass a rigorous inspection and meet strict age and mileage standards — under 10 years old with fewer than 100,000 miles.

The result: more certified inventory for our customers, better warranty protection, and access to competitive financing rates through GM Financial.

CarBravo Certifies All Makes
    Eligible vehicles must be under 10 years old with fewer than 100,000 miles.
    Certification Benefits

    What Every CarBravo Vehicle Includes

    Every vehicle that earns CarBravo certification comes with the following protections and ownership benefits — at no additional cost to you.

    Warranty Coverage

    CarBravo Certified Coverage at a Glance

    The CarBravo Certified tier covers vehicles under 10 years old with fewer than 100,000 miles. Here's a summary of what's included:

    Feature CarBravo Certified
    Vehicle Eligibility Under 10 years / under 100,000 miles
    Warranty Type Limited Bumper-to-Bumper
    Warranty Duration 12 months or 12,000 miles (whichever comes first)
    Deductible $0 — No deductible
    Roadside Assistance Included
    Courtesy Transportation Included
    Vehicle Exchange Window 10 days or 500 miles
    CARFAX Report Included free
    Service Network 4,000+ authorized GM service centers

    * The 12/12 warranty begins on the date of purchase, or — for vehicles still under their original factory warranty — it activates once that factory coverage expires. This means CarBravo either provides fresh coverage or extends your existing protection.

    Quick Check

    Is the Vehicle You're Considering Eligible?

    Enter the vehicle's model year to see if it meets CarBravo's age requirement.

    Vehicle must also have fewer than 100,000 miles. Final eligibility is confirmed at inspection.

    GM Financial Financing

    Better Financing Rates on Used Vehicles

    One of the biggest pain points for used car buyers since 2020 has been interest rates. Unlike private-party used vehicle purchases, CarBravo certified vehicles qualify for more competitive APR rates through General Motors Financial.

    This is a meaningful benefit that can reduce your monthly payment and total cost of ownership. Ask our finance team to show you side-by-side rate comparisons — the difference is often significant.
