for Your Next Used Car?
When you are searching for a pre-owned vehicle, you will likely encounter many different terms, but few offer the same level of assurance as "RNG Certified." So, what does RNG Certified mean? It is our dealership’s exclusive certification that signifies a pre-owned vehicle has met the highest standards of quality, safety, and reliability. This is not just a simple sticker in a window; it represents a promise. A promise that the car, truck, or SUV you are considering has undergone a rigorous and exhaustive multi-point inspection by our expert technicians. It means the vehicle has a clean history and is backed by a comprehensive warranty. Choosing an RNG Certified vehicle is choosing confidence, giving you the peace of mind you deserve when making such an important investment. It transforms the uncertainty of buying a used car into a secure and transparent experience, ensuring you drive away happy.
Our commitment to you does not end after the inspection. Every RNG Certified vehicle comes with a suite of benefits designed for your protection on the road ahead. This includes a robust limited warranty covering key components, 24/7 roadside assistance for unexpected issues, and a complimentary vehicle history report for complete transparency. We believe that buying a used car should be an exciting milestone, not a source of stress. The RNG Certified program is our way of standing behind the vehicles we sell.
The used car market can feel like a minefield. Navigating private sales and as-is dealership listings often leaves buyers wondering about a vehicle's true history and mechanical condition. Was it maintained properly? Has it been in an unreported accident? Are there underlying issues that will not surface for a few thousand miles? These are valid concerns that can create significant anxiety. The RNG Certified program was created to eliminate this uncertainty and provide a superior alternative to the typical used car buying process. It is a seal of approval from our team, indicating a vehicle that we would be proud to sell to our own family and friends.
This certification is reserved for only the best pre-owned vehicles that come through our doors. Not every car qualifies. We have strict criteria for age, mileage, and overall condition that a vehicle must meet before it can even be considered for the program. This initial screening ensures we start with a high-quality pool of potential candidates. From there, the real work begins with our comprehensive inspection and reconditioning process, which sets these vehicles apart from all others on the lot.
The foundation of the RNG Certified program is an uncompromising multi-point inspection conducted by our factory-trained technicians. This is a meticulous, bumper-to-bumper evaluation that scrutinizes every major system of the vehicle. Our technicians use a detailed checklist to ensure nothing is overlooked, and any component that does not meet our strict standards is repaired or replaced with quality parts. Explore some of the key areas we cover below.
Passing our inspection is just the beginning. When you purchase an RNG Certified vehicle, you receive a package of benefits that provides value long after you leave our dealership. We have designed this program to cover you from multiple angles, giving you the kind of support typically reserved for new car buyers.
The centerpiece of these benefits is our Limited Powertrain Warranty. This provides crucial coverage for the most expensive components of your vehicle, including the engine, transmission, and drivetrain. Should an issue arise with a covered part, this warranty helps protect you from costly, unexpected repair bills. For even more security, every certified purchase includes 24/7 Roadside Assistance. Whether you have a flat tire, run out of gas, or need a tow, help is just a phone call away.
Transparency is a non-negotiable part of our process. That is why every RNG Certified vehicle comes with a complimentary CARFAX® Vehicle History Report. This report gives you a detailed look into the car’s past, including title information, service records, and any reported accidents, so you can buy with complete clarity. Our goal is to ensure you love your new vehicle, which is why we also offer a 3-Day/150-Mile Vehicle Exchange Program. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, you can bring it back and exchange it for another vehicle. This is our ultimate commitment to your satisfaction.
When you compare an RNG Certified vehicle to a standard "as-is" used car, the advantages become crystal clear. A standard used car comes with no guarantees. It may have hidden mechanical problems, a questionable history, and offers no protection once you drive off the lot. An RNG Certified vehicle, however, has been thoroughly vetted, reconditioned, and backed by our dealership. While the initial investment may be slightly higher, the long-term value and avoidance of potential repair costs often make it the more financially sound decision.

While similar in principle, the RNG Certified program is exclusive to our dealership. We developed our own rigorous standards, inspired by manufacturer CPO programs, to provide a high level of quality and assurance for a wider range of makes and models, not just one specific brand.
RNG Certified vehicles typically have a slightly higher price point than non-certified used cars. This reflects the significant value added through the comprehensive multi-point inspection, professional reconditioning, and the included benefits like the limited warranty and roadside assistance.
No, only a select group of vehicles are eligible. Each car must first meet our strict initial criteria for age and mileage and must have a clean vehicle history report. Only after passing this initial screening can a vehicle proceed to the multi-point inspection process required for certification.
Our limited warranty is designed to protect you from major repair costs. It primarily covers essential powertrain components, which include the engine block, transmission, and drive axle assemblies. For a detailed list of all covered components, please ask one of our sales associates for the warranty documentation.
For your convenience, all warranty repairs can be completed right here at our state-of-the-art service center. Our expert technicians are familiar with the certification standards and are equipped to handle any covered repairs efficiently and professionally. We are committed to upholding the promise of quality that comes with every RNG Certified sale.
