If I purchase a Certified Pre-Owned Volkswagen from a Volkswagen dealer, will it include a warranty?

Just like the experience of buying new, a minimum of 1-year warranty is included on every Volkswagen in the Certified Pre-Owned Program. So, you can be rest assured knowing that if the unexpected happens you’ll be covered. For more information, please visit Certified Pre-Owned. The Certified Pre-Owned Limited Warranty commences either at:

The conclusion of the New Vehicle Warranty (if the Certified Pre-Owned vehicle was still within the New Vehicle Warranty at the time of purchase), or
At the time of the Certified Pre-Owned vehicle purchase (if the Certified Pre-Owned vehicles’ New Vehicle Warranty had already expired).

If your Certified Pre-Owned Volkswagen has any remaining Volkswagen New Vehicle Warranty from its time of purchase, the Certified Pre-Owned Warranty will add an extra year of coverage on top of the New Vehicle Warranty cover.
