Toyota Certified Used Vehicles in Birmingham, AL
Why Buy Serra Toyota Certified?
THE BEST NEW CARS MAKE THE BEST USED CARS
It stands to reason that the better a product is made, the longer it will last. And that makes getting a high-quality, low-mileage Toyota at a great price a savvy move.
Toyota’s timeless commitment to quality, innovation, and durability are the foundation upon which the Toyota Certified Used Vehicles (TCUV) program launched in 1996. The TCUV program has gained momentum with each passing year and totals over five million sales today.
With industry-leading heritage comes another advantage: an exceptional coverage policy. With a 12-month/12,000-mile Limited Comprehensive Warranty, 1 a 7-year/100,000-mile Limited Powertrain Warranty, 2 a 24 Hour Roadside Assistance for 7 years/100,000 miles, 3 it’s honored at more than 1,400 Toyota dealers in the U.S. and Canada including our used car dealership in Birmingham, AL.
Certification Process
Our certification process keeps you in mind at every step. The TCUV standards apply from when a Toyota dealer acquires the vehicle to the final sale. Each candidate for certification can be a current model year vehicle, up to and including six-year-old models, with 85,000 miles or less on the odometer. Before the rigorous 160-point inspection, every certified Toyota goes through a CARFAX vehicle history report to ensure that only the best of the best vehicles receive the Toyota Certified Seal of approval.
