Volvo Introduces Maintenance Program for CPO Vehicles
ROCKLEIGH — Volvo Cars of North America LLC (VCNA) announced the addition of Protection Plus+, a factory scheduled maintenance package, to its Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) warranty program.
IntelliChoice recently named Volvo as having the best premium certified pre-owned program for 2011, marking the fourth consecutive year the CPO program has been awarded this honor.
"We realize people have a lot of options when shopping for vehicles. Protection Plus+ is a way to set Volvo apart from other manufacturers and offer something more for our customers that they'll truly appreciate - lower total cost of ownership and added peace of mind," said Doug Speck, VCNA president and CEO. "We also wanted to provide a comparable option for our CPO vehicles to the services that are covered on our new vehicles."
Protection Plus+ creates a best-in-class protection package by coupling factory scheduled maintenance coverage with Volvo's award-winning CPO warranty program, which includes:
• An exclusionary warranty that provides factory-backed coverage on thousands of components, systems and operations
• Six-year/100,000 miles protection covering replacement or repair of defective components
• Volvo On Call Roadside Assistance for six years/100,000 miles
• $0 deductible
• Transferability between owners
• CARFAX Buyback Guarantee
