What Makes a Toyota Gold Certified?
A Gold Certified Toyota is more than a pre-owned vehicle—it represents a higher standard of quality, confidence, and Toyota-backed protection. Before earning Gold Certified status, qualifying Toyota vehicles must meet strict age and mileage requirements and complete Toyota's comprehensive Quality Assurance Inspection.
At Smart Motors Toyota, choosing Gold Certified means enjoying the value of a pre-owned Toyota with benefits designed to elevate the ownership experience. Toyota-backed warranty coverage, 24-Hour Roadside Assistance, a complimentary CARFAX® Vehicle History Report, and additional ownership benefits give you added confidence from the moment you drive home.
A Higher Standard for Pre-Owned Toyota Vehicles
Not every pre-owned Toyota can become Gold Certified. Each qualifying vehicle must meet Toyota's certification requirements and complete a detailed Quality Assurance Inspection covering mechanical condition, appearance, and detailing standards.
Once certified, that Toyota is backed by an impressive package of warranty coverage and ownership benefits, including 24-Hour Roadside Assistance and a complimentary CARFAX® Vehicle History Report.
It's an added level of assurance that makes Gold Certified an exceptional way to experience the quality and reliability you expect from Toyota.
