Thelen Honda is a trusted destination in Michigan for preowned Honda vehicle shopping because we make the entire experience enjoyable and informative. This includes ensuring you are confident in the vehicle you are purchasing. As such, we would like to offer suggestions if you are in the initial stages of considering shopping for a preowned vehicle and want to know what to look for. With our help, you can get a head start in finding that quality family cruiser that you can trust throughout your traveling experiences in the Mid-Michigan region.
What To Focus On When PreOwned Vehicle Shopping
Mileage & Model Age – An inevitable part of a preowned vehicle is that you will not have put every mile on the engine. As such, one of the areas we recommend looking at is the current mileage of the vehicle you are looking at purchasing and its model year. A general rule of thumb that we like to suggest is that more than about 12,000 miles a year on a powertrain is considered heavy usage. While still having plenty of driving potential in it especially with the Honda quality, it is something to be aware of.
Interior Amenities & Vehicle Performance – Much like what you would consider when shopping for a new Honda in Michigan, you should do your research on the performance capabilities and the features that your potential next vehicle has. This can help you pinpoint that dream option that will meet your everyday travel needs. Whether you are more focused on power or interior comfort, knowing what you are searching for gets you on the right track in your preowned vehicle shopping.
Accident & Maintenance History – Another vital area that you need to look out for when shopping for a preowned vehicle is its accident history and its service history. When you shop with Thelen Auto Group and view any of the vehicles on our online preowned inventory, you can view their CarStory. This includes a CARFAX report that will give you the details about the damage and reported servicing that the vehicle has had. This can help provide peace of mind about your new-to-you vehicle.
