Honda: Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles Now Up to 10 Years Old

Honda is expanding its certified pre-owned program with a more inclusive offering that now certifies vehicles up to 10 years old. The new initiative, called "Approved Used Vehicles", is designed especially for first-time buyers and budget-conscious drivers, while maintaining Honda’s high standards for reliability and peace of mind.

One of the Most Comprehensive Certifications in Canada

With this updated program, Honda now offers one of the longest-reaching certified pre-owned vehicle programs in the Canadian market. Unlike more restrictive programs that apply only to newer vehicles, Honda’s expanded approach includes models with higher mileage or up to a decade of service.

To qualify, each vehicle must pass a rigorous multi-point inspection performed by Honda-trained technicians. Any required repairs are carried out using genuine Honda parts, ensuring the vehicle meets the automaker’s strict quality standards.

Confidence for Quebec Drivers

All vehicles in the Approved Used Vehicles category come with a 180-day / 12,000 km powertrain warranty starting from the date of purchase. In addition, buyers have a 7-day or 1,000 km exchange policy, allowing them to return the vehicle for another certified model if it doesn’t meet expectations.

Each vehicle also comes with a CARFAX Canada report, giving buyers full visibility into its history—an important step toward making a confident and informed decision at their local Honda dealership.

Two Tiers to Better Meet Driver Needs

Honda’s certified pre-owned program is now structured into two tiers:

• Certified Used Vehicles: Covers vehicles 0 to 5 years old with fewer than 150,000 km. These models include an extended 7-year / 160,000 km powertrain warranty from the original in-service date.
• Approved Used Vehicles: Designed for older models (up to 10 years old) with more flexible mileage criteria, backed by a 180-day / 12,000 km powertrain warranty from the date of sale.

This two-tiered system gives Honda dealers the ability to offer a broader range of certified vehicles, accommodating a wider variety of driver preferences and budgets.

More Choice, Same Peace of Mind

With the launch of the Approved Used Vehicles program, Honda strengthens its position as a trusted provider of reliable and affordable pre-owned vehicles. Quebec consumers now have access to a larger selection of certified vehicles—without compromising on warranty coverage or inspection standards.

For drivers looking for a dependable used vehicle that fits their budget, Honda’s expanded certification program is a smart and reassuring choice.
