A Guide to the Certified Pre-Owned Inspection Process Near Lake Wales, FL

At Huston Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram in Avon Park, about 15 miles south of Lake Wales on US Highway 27, every certified pre-owned Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, or Ram goes through the manufacturer’s 125-point inspection before it earns CPO status. Our factory-trained technicians examine everything from the engine, transmission, and steering to the brakes, electrical systems, and paint condition, and any vehicle that needs attention is reconditioned using genuine Mopar parts. Every certified pre-owned vehicle also comes with a CARFAX vehicle history report, a manufacturer-backed limited warranty, and roadside assistance, so you get real documentation and protection, not just a sticker. We walk you through the inspection report on any CPO vehicle you are considering so you know exactly what was checked.

Why Lake Wales Shoppers Trust Our CPO Inspections

What Happens During a CPO Inspection

Before a used vehicle can carry certified pre-owned status, our technicians work through the manufacturer’s 125-point checklist, which covers the engine, transmission, steering and suspension, brakes, electrical components, interior features, and exterior paint condition. Any component that does not meet the standard is repaired or replaced using genuine Mopar parts, not aftermarket substitutes. We also pull a CARFAX vehicle history report on every candidate so you can see reported accidents, title issues, and service history before you buy.

Once a vehicle passes inspection, it comes backed by a manufacturer limited warranty and roadside assistance, giving you protection that goes well beyond a standard used vehicle. Ask us for the full inspection report on any CPO vehicle you are considering.
