Mazda Certified Pre-Owned Explained

Mazda Certified Pre-Owned is Mazda’s factory-backed program for late-model Mazda vehicles sold through Mazda dealers. Mazda states that only well-maintained vehicles make the cut, and each one is inspected by a factory-trained Mazda technician before it can be certified.

Eligibility and Inspection

  • Late-model Mazda vehicles that meet Mazda’s age and mileage limits (generally six model years or newer with under 80,000 miles)
  • 160-point inspection by a factory-trained Mazda technician
  • CARFAX® Vehicle History Report, with a CARFAX Buyback Guarantee subject to CARFAX terms

Warranty Coverage

  • 12-month/12,000-mile Limited Vehicle Warranty that begins after any remaining 3-year/36,000-mile New Vehicle Limited Warranty, or at purchase if that has expired
  • 7-year/100,000-mile Limited Powertrain Warranty from the original new-vehicle sale date
  • No deductible on covered warranty repairs at Mazda dealers, according to Mazda

Ownership Extras

  • 24-hour Emergency Roadside Assistance for the term of the powertrain warranty, including towing, jump starts, flat tire changes and lockout help
  • Warranties are transferable to future owners at no cost
  • Special Mazda Financial Services programs on select certified models from time to time
Program terms are set by Mazda and can change. Whichever comes first applies to time and mileage limits. Ask our team for complete details on the specific certified vehicle you are considering.

What to Check When Buying a Used Vehicle in the Desert

Vehicle History

Look for accident reports, title brands, number of owners and service records. Ask our team for the history report on any vehicle you are considering.

Heat and Sun Wear

Coachella Valley summers are hard on batteries, rubber seals, hoses, dashboards and leather. Check for cracking, fading and sticky trim, and ask when the battery was last replaced.

Tires and Cooling System

Read the four-digit date code on each tire, since rubber ages in heat even with good tread. Confirm the coolant has been serviced and the A/C blows cold after a long idle.

Recalls and Maintenance

Make sure open recalls have been completed and oil and fluid services are current. Our service team can help set up a maintenance plan after you buy.

Dust and Wind Exposure

Blowing sand through the Pass can pit windshields and paint and clog air filters. Look closely at the glass, front bumper and cabin filter.

Test Drive Your Real Routes

Drive on Highway 111 and a stretch of I-10 to check noise, braking, steering and how the A/C keeps up in afternoon heat.

Trade-In and Used Car Financing

Most used car shoppers have something to trade. Start with our Kelley Blue Book® Instant Cash Offer for a quick value, or request a trade appraisal so our team can review your vehicle in detail. The value can go straight toward your next car.

When you are ready, apply for used car financing online and use our payment calculator to plan a comfortable monthly budget. Our finance center works with a range of credit situations and will walk you through your options without pressure.

Frequently Asked Questions About Used Vehicles at Palm Springs Mazda

QWhere can I buy a used car near Palm Springs?

Palm Springs Mazda is at 69200 E Palm Canyon Dr in Cathedral City, CA 92234, minutes from Palm Springs, Rancho Mirage and Palm Desert. Browse our pre-owned inventory online and call 760-328-2102 to confirm availability or schedule a test drive.

QDo you only sell used Mazdas?

No. Because we accept trade-ins of every brand, our used selection often includes Toyota, Honda, Ford, Chevrolet, Nissan, Hyundai, Kia, Subaru and luxury makes alongside Mazda. Inventory changes daily, so check online or call for the current selection.

QWhat does certified pre-owned mean?

A certified pre-owned vehicle has passed a manufacturer-backed inspection and comes with added factory warranty coverage. Mazda Certified Pre-Owned vehicles get a 160-point inspection, a 12-month/12,000-mile Limited Vehicle Warranty and a 7-year/100,000-mile Limited Powertrain Warranty from the original sale date.

QWhich used Mazdas qualify for certification?

Mazda certifies late-model Mazda vehicles that meet its age and mileage limits, generally six model years or newer with fewer than 80,000 miles, and that pass the 160-point inspection. Our team can tell you which vehicles in our inventory are certified.

QWhat is the best used Mazda to buy?

It depends on your needs. The CX-5 is a popular all-around compact SUV, the Mazda3 suits efficiency-minded commuters, and the CX-90 offers three rows for larger households. Choosing a Mazda Certified Pre-Owned example adds inspection and warranty coverage.

QAre Mazda vehicles reliable?

Mazda generally earns solid marks for reliability from independent reviewers, and its naturally aspirated Skyactiv-G engines have a reputation for simple, durable design. On any used vehicle, maintenance history matters most, so review service records and consider a certified model for added coverage.

QShould I buy new or used?

A used vehicle usually costs less up front and has already absorbed its steepest depreciation. A new vehicle offers the latest technology and full factory warranty. A certified pre-owned Mazda sits in between, with a lower cost than new plus factory-backed coverage.

QCan I get financing on a used vehicle?

Yes. Apply online before your visit and use our payment calculator to plan your budget. Our finance team works with shoppers across a range of credit situations.

QWhat should I look for on a used car in desert heat?

Check the battery age, tire date codes, A/C performance, cooling system and the condition of seals, hoses and interior surfaces, since heat speeds up wear on these parts. A test drive in afternoon heat shows how well the A/C keeps up.

QCan I service my used vehicle at Palm Springs Mazda?

Yes. Our factory-trained technicians service Mazda vehicles, and our team can confirm which services we offer for other makes. Schedule online or call 760-328-2102.
