FAQ

Ford Certified Pre-Owned Questions

What is Ford Blue Advantage?

Ford Blue Advantage is Ford’s certified pre-owned program. It includes three certification levels: Gold Certified, EV Certified, and Blue Certified. Each level has its own age, mileage, inspection, and warranty requirements.

What is the difference between Gold, EV, and Blue Certified?

Gold Certified vehicles are Ford models up to 6 years old with less than 80,000 miles that pass a 172-point inspection. EV Certified vehicles are fully electric Ford models up to 6 years old with less than 80,000 miles that pass a 127-point inspection. Blue Certified vehicles are up to 10 years old with less than 150,000 miles and pass a 139-point inspection. Gold and EV Certified include longer warranty and Roadside Assistance coverage.

Do I have to buy a Ford to get a Blue Certified vehicle?

Gold and EV Certified require a Ford model. Blue Certified is not limited to Ford models, so you may find other makes that meet the Blue Certified age, mileage, and inspection requirements. Contact our team to see what is currently available.

How does the 14-Day/1,000-Mile Money Back Guarantee work?

The vehicle must be returned within 14 days or 1,000 miles, whichever comes first, from the original sale date and mileage on the bill of sale, in the same condition it was sold (excluding normal wear and tear). Restrictions apply, including vehicles with a lien. See the full terms in the disclosures below or ask our sales team.1

Is the limited warranty transferable?

Yes. Ford Blue Advantage limited warranty coverage is transferable to future owners at no extra cost.3

Can I add more coverage to a certified vehicle?

Yes. Ford Protect Extended Service Plans offer additional coverage and are available from any Ford Dealer. Visit our Ford Protect page or ask our finance team for details.

Are certified vehicles checked for open recalls?

Service recalls are part of the Vehicle History portion of every certified inspection checklist. Some vehicles offered for sale may still be subject to unrepaired manufacturer safety recalls, so you can check any vehicle’s status at www.safercar.gov.
