At Mercedes-Benz, certification means knowing you’re getting the best without compromise.
As a Mercedes-Benz customer, you can be assured that all mechanical and electrical components of our pre-owned vehicles go through a stringent 150-point inspection. A Mercedes-Benz Certified Pre-Owned vehicle is only approved and qualifies for the Mercedes-Benz Star Certified Warranty if and when it meets mandatory inspection standards.
Engine Test:
From the intake to the exhaust, everything from belts and plugs to the ignition and emission systems is tested to make sure it is all up to factory standards.
Fluids:
Engine oil, coolant, transmission fluid, power steering fluid, washer fluid and more are thoroughly checked and topped up or flushed and replaced as necessary.
Electrical Systems:
All electrical components – from headlights, to taillights, to any equipped extras that are specific to your vehicle – are tested.
Undercarriage/Drivetrain:
The steering, suspension, brakes, wheels, tires and driveshafts are checked to make sure they meet our standards.
Appearance Standards:
The fit and finish, inside and out, is as free of dings, rips, scratches, and scuffs as we can make it.
Safety, Security and Solidity:
All of the systems designed to ensure your protection, from seat belts to the alarm system, are thoroughly inspected.
On-Road Evaluation:
An expert on-road assessment by factory-trained technicians is the final test to make sure the engine, transmission, steering, ride, handling and braking are up to factory standards. Instruments and control systems also receive the same careful scrutiny.

Afterwards, the standard Mercedes-Benz Star Certified Pre-Owned Warranty term provides protection for up to another 2 years or a total of 120,000 accumulated kilometres. It is included on every qualified Certified Pre-Owned vehicle and covers the powertrain and other major components.
