Certified Pre-Owned Chevy Silverado

Since you’ve decided on a certified pre-owned Chevy Silverado, the hard part is done. You know the many benefits that come with buying a certified pre-owned vehicle, like the fact that you’re paying closer to the true value of the truck and will avoid the rapid rate of depreciation that befalls every new vehicle. These benefits are standard throughout the industry, but Chevy’s certified pre-owned program has even more to offer. Knowing more about your Silverado options from the 1500 to the 2500 and 3500, as well as understanding all the work Chevrolet and our team puts into each certified pre-owned vehicle, makes shopping for a Silverado even more enticing.

Your Chevy Silverado Overview

While the Silverado truck is relatively new to the Chevy lineup, the Silverado name has been around since the 1970s. Chevy introduced the Silverado as a top-tier trim on the popular C/K truck in the 1970s and later expanded the trim to the Tahoe and Suburban. By 1999, the Silverado finally earned a lineup of its own and ushered the C/K into a new generation of modern technology and features, ultimately setting the stage for every subsequent generation of the iconic workhorse.

Today, you’ll find plenty of options when you shop for a certified pre-owned Silverado. The Silverado 1500 might be the smallest truck in the fleet, but it’s a capable road warrior known for its powerful engines, efficiency, and many conveniences that make it an ideal workhorse and everyday driver. For those who need more power and the ability to tow heavy loads with ease, Silverado’s heavy-duty models like the 2500 and 3500 fit the bill. To get the most trailering capability and the best fuel economy from these models, be sure to look for a Silverado 2500 or 3500 with Chevy’s iconic Duramax diesel under the hood.

Chevrolet’s Certified Pre-Owned Warranties

Chevrolet holds its certified pre-owned models to a higher standard, and that engineers confidence the moment you start shopping for a truck like the Silverado. You know you’re not just buying any pre-owned truck; you’re investing in a truck that’s been thoroughly vetted for your future on the road. Making that investment becomes even easier when you discover that Chevrolet continues to instill this confidence long after you sign on the dotted line.

Every certified pre-owned Chevy comes with a satisfaction guarantee. Chevrolet and the McCluskey Chevrolet team know firsthand that, sometimes, we change our minds. When that happens, there’s no reason to stress since you can exchange your certified pre-owned Chevrolet for a different model within three days or 150 miles.

With your satisfaction guaranteed, Chevrolet turns its attention to instilling confidence in your purchase. To do that, every certified pre-owned Chevy comes with two factory-backed warranties that give you peace of mind on the road and confidence in your purchase. Fully transferable and requiring no deductible, these warranties include a 6-year or 100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty and a 12-month or 12,000-mile bumper-to-bumper limited warranty. These warranties cover the engine, transmission, heater, air conditioner, electrical components, and other vital parts that are, otherwise, costly out-of-pocket expenses.

Your certified pre-owned Chevrolet’s two factory-backed warranties also include several other benefits. You’ll enjoy two complimentary maintenance visits that include oil and filter changes, multi-point inspections, and tire rotations within the first 24 months or 24,000-miles. For the duration of your powertrain limited warranty, you’ll have access to Chevrolet’s 24/7 Roadside Assistance and courtesy transportation, which can help you in times of need, whether you need a tow, jumpstart, fuel delivery, or lockout service.

Chevrolet Certified Pre-Owned Inspection

Used vehicles are usually sold as-is, which means what you see is exactly what you get from the dents in the bumper to the stains in the upholstery. There’s no vetting process for these models; every car, truck, and SUV is accepted. This, however, isn’t what you’ll find in our inventory of certified pre-owned Silverados.

Chevy’s certified pre-owned sticker is a badge of honor and reflects the work put into each model. That work starts when a vehicle meets Chevrolet’s standard certified pre-owned requirements: it must be less than six model years old, have fewer than 75,000 miles, have a clean title, and pass a comprehensive inspection. This guarantees the age and mileage of the vehicle, its availability, and its operability, the latter of which is the most important for your future behind the wheel.

Chevrolet’s comprehensive inspection includes a 172-point checklist that looks over every aspect of the Silverado. The inspection starts by looking at the Silverado’s history, determining any ongoing warranty coverage or title issues, and accessing its vehicle history report. Even items that seem mundane, like the owner’s manual and warranty paperwork, are reviewed and inspected during the process. As the inspection progresses, certified technicians inspect and repair everything related to the Silverado’s maintenance needs like the battery, oil and filter, fluid levels, tires, and brakes. The road test gives the technicians a better idea of more significant repairs that may be needed, such as those related to the engine, transmission, and steering.

As the technicians move through the checklist, every inch of the Silverado is inspected, repaired, and thoroughly cleaned. The goal is to get the Silverado as close to its original condition as possible. This means repairing everything that needs from a broken taillight to something more significant, like a misaligned steering wheel. This is also where any uncompleted recalls will be done. With this attention to detail and this level of care, you know exactly what you’re getting when you purchase a certified pre-owned Chevy like the Silverado.
