A Kia Certified Pre-Owned vehicle must be up to 6 years old with fewer than 80,000 miles on the odometer, and it must pass a 165-point inspection carried out by a Kia factory trained dealer technician (Kia America, 2026). The inspection includes a Carfax Vehicle History Report. Any part that does not meet Kia’s standards is replaced with a factory-authorized part.

Kia’s program also carries a 10-year/100,000-mile limited powertrain warranty that starts on the vehicle’s original in-service date. It charges a one-time $40 fee to transfer the warranty, and it reimburses a rental car at up to $35 per day for up to 10 days (Kia Certified Pre-Owned benefits page). The program’s terms are set by Kia, so they apply to any Kia Certified Pre-Owned vehicle.
