Frequently Asked Questions About Certified Pre-Owned Kias
Choosing a Kia Certified Pre-Owned vehicle? We answer common questions to help you make an informed decision and find the perfect fit.
What happens when a vehicle part does not pass inspection?
To ensure the highest quality, any part that doesn't meet Kia's stringent standards is repaired or replaced using only genuine factory parts.
What is the main difference between Kia CPO Lite and Kia CPO?
The main difference between Kia CPO Lite and Kia CPO lies in the age and mileage restrictions of the vehicle.
- Kia CPO Lite has a broader eligibility, accepting vehicles up to 10 years old with up to 100,000 miles.
- Kia CPO is more stringent, only accepting vehicles that are 6 model years or newer with less than 80,000 miles.
This age and mileage difference directly impacts the warranty coverage. CPO Lite offers a shorter, 6-month/6,000-mile powertrain warranty, while CPO provides a more extensive 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty and a 1-year/12,000-mile Platinum warranty.
Essentially, Kia CPO Lite is designed for slightly older and higher-mileage vehicles, offering a more limited warranty and potentially a lower price point. Kia CPO is for newer, lower-mileage vehicles, providing a more comprehensive warranty and typically a higher price.
What Does Kia’s 164-point inspection Cover?
Kia's 164-Point Inspection covers a comprehensive range of vehicle systems, ensuring a high level of quality and safety for certified pre-owned vehicles. Key areas include:
- Vehicle History: A thorough check of the vehicle's history, including title checks for any potential issues.

- Engine & Transmission: Inspection of all major engine components, including the transmission, for proper function and wear and tear.

- Brakes: Thorough inspection of the brake system, including rotors, calipers, and pads, to ensure safe and effective braking performance.
- Electrical Systems: Checks of all electrical components, including lights, electronics, and the battery, to ensure proper functionality.
- Emissions: Assessment of the vehicle's emissions system to ensure compliance with environmental regulations.
- Cooling System: Inspection of the cooling system, including the radiator and hoses, to ensure proper engine temperature regulation.
- Exhaust System: Check of the exhaust system for leaks, damage, and proper function.
- Fuel System: Inspection of the fuel system, including fuel lines and injectors, to ensure proper fuel delivery.
- Heating & Air Conditioning: Evaluation of the heating and air conditioning systems to ensure proper climate control.

Can you transfer the Kia Certified Pre-Owned Warranty?

- Kia CPO Lite: Can be up to 10 years old with up to 100,000 miles, but has more limited warranty coverage.
