You are probably pretty familiar with the car-buying process by now, knowing that you have a selection of new and used vehicles to choose from. What you may not be so familiar with is CarBravo, especially if you’re interested in a used vehicle.

As your go-to used car dealership, LaFontaine Buick GMC Highland is ready to help you navigate the rewarding world of CarBravo. So, what is CarBravo, you ask? We’ve answered some of the top questions about this program so you can know everything there is to know about the new way to shop for used vehicles.

What Is CarBravo?

CarBravo is a way to shop for certified used vehicles from some of the most respected automotive brands. You’ll find that this certified used vehicle program from GM offers enhanced peace of mind with your purchase. It provides you with top-of-the-line models from various automakers that have passed strict inspections and have met incredibly high standards.

What Vehicles Can Be Found in the CarBravo Selection?

You’ll find a wonderful assortment of GMC and Buick vehicles here with us, along with models from other automakers as well. Unlike other Certified Pre-Owned programs, which limit you to certain models a dealership carries, CarBravo expands your selection to include models from other automakers, elevating your search for the perfect car.

You’ll find models from brands like Jeep, Ford, Lexus, Subaru, Toyota, and others in our rotating inventory—all free of open recalls. These high-quality models let you shop for a used vehicle you know won’t let you down.

What Makes CarBravo Vehicles Special?

In addition to being complimentary with recalls, every vehicle in the CarBravo inventory has gone through a detailed 126-point inspection process to ensure that all components are working properly. These vehicles are also more recent models, less than 10 years old, with fewer than 100,000 miles on the odometer.

They all come with clean CARFAX vehicle history reports. This lets you know the vehicles in this selection are of the highest quality and don’t have any underlying issues. Not only can you enjoy a lineup of newer vehicles with some of the most advanced features in the industry for less, but you’ll also have the assurance you need in knowing that they’re held to higher standards.

What’s the Difference Between CarBravo and BravoBudget?

This exceptional certified used vehicle program comprises two tiers. You have already been enlightened about CarBravo. Now it’s time to explore the program’s other tier: BravoBudget. BravoBudget includes models that are 10-15 years old and have 100,000-150,000 miles on their odometers.

They’ve also passed a 62-point inspection to ensure they’re operating at peak performance. You may assume that vehicles don’t last beyond 100,000 miles, but this is simply not true. Many vehicles on the road these days have hundreds of thousands of miles on them, and they’re still confidently taking travelers to all the places they need to be.

Maintaining your vehicle is key to ensuring its ultimate longevity, and BravoBudget vehicles are the perfect example. You can also expect BravoBudget models to be confirmed complimentary from recalls and have clean CARFAX Vehicle History Reports.

What Are the CarBravo Ownership Benefits?

Not only will you get to enjoy newer vehicles that have passed rigorous testing when you choose a CarBravo vehicle, but you also get to take advantage of an abundance of ownership benefits along the way. From at-home test drives to home delivery services available (conditions apply), you’ll be able to create the ideal shopping experience when you’re interested in CarBravo.

How Can You Shop for a CarBravo Vehicle?

Just like shopping for any other type of car, you can come to our dealership to explore our CarBravo selection. You can even complete the process from the comfort of home if you wish. This makes it easier than ever to get into the right vehicle for the right price in the way that works perfectly for you.

Are CarBravo Vehicles Covered Under Warranty?

Yes! All CarBravo vehicles include a Bumper-to-Bumper Limited Warranty, which covers your vehicle for 12 months or 12,000 miles with a $0 deductible. This warranty covers various parts of your vehicle, including the engine, transmission, seals and gaskets, and driving systems.

You’ll also enjoy coverage for your vehicle’s electrical components, air conditioning, brakes, suspension, and more. This allows you to take to the streets in a vehicle you know is of great quality and backed by a warranty that you can count on.

Are There Any Additional Benefits When Choosing a CarBravo Vehicle?

Again, the answer is yes! All CarBravo vehicles come with a host of perks to further enhance your travel experience. You’ll be able to enjoy one month of OnStar services, as well as three months of SiriusXM. You will also earn GM Rewards points, which you can use to purchase vehicle accessories and really make it your own.

In addition, CarBravo vehicles come with 24-hour roadside assistance, courtesy transportation, and more. Choosing to add the optional BravoCare coverage lets you take advantage of prepaid maintenance, tire and wheel protection, GAP coverage, and various protection plans. This gives you additional peace of mind while you travel in your CarBravo vehicle.

Is There an Exchange Policy?

What if you end up not loving the CarBravo vehicle you chose? Are you stuck with it? The answer is no. There is an exchange policy in place that allows you to bring your CarBravo vehicle back and find something more suitable for your travel needs.

This exchange policy is a 10-day/500-mile program that lets you get a feel for your vehicle and decide whether it suits you. We’re here to help you find another vehicle in the CarBravo selection that better meets your needs, so don’t hesitate to come back if your vehicle just isn’t working for you.
