With new-car supplies disrupted, Nissan Motor Co. is helping its dealers step up their used-vehicle game.
This fall, the automaker will launch a certified pre-owned program for non-Nissan brand vehicles.
The vehicles will receive an 84-point inspection and a 6-month/6,000-mile limited warranty, compared with a 167-point inspection and a 7-year/ 100,000-mile warranty for Nissan-brand CPOs.
Nissan hopes the expanded program will draw shoppers who might not have otherwise considered the brand to its stores, creating an opportunity to flip them into a new or used Nissan when it's time to upgrade or buy a second vehicle.
