About CarMark Certified Pre-Owned
CarMark Certified Pre-Owned is a 72-month/100,000-mile in-service date powertrain warranty for vehicles with some OEM warranty remaining. Qualified vehicles are current-
model plus five years and have less than 60,000 odometer miles. A separate powertrain warranty is also an option for vehicles with up to 100,000 miles on the odometer.

Both powertrain warranties can be upgraded by the customer with EasyCare vehicle service contract products, providing additional profit potential to the dealer. CarMark Certified includes a comprehensive inspection, rental car reimbursement, towing benefit, trip interruption benefit, tire and wheel protection and roadside assistance.

The CarMark Certified Pre-Owned program is designed to be equivalent to, but not compete with, the manufacturers' programs while also offering former franchise and independent dealers a CPO program to offer customers.

CarMark Certified is powered nationally by APCO/EasyCare, one of the nation's leaders in warranty and vehicle service contract business.
