FERRARI CERTIFIED BENEFITS
A Certified Pre-Owned Program By Ferrari
Ferrari Approved is a pre-owned certification program designed to help provide maximum security and peace of mind to owners purchasing Ferraris registered within the last 14 years.
The program encompasses a comprehensive series of controls and coverage issued by Maranello itself, including:
- A detailed inspection by Ferrari technicians
- Provenance and maintenance history verification of every Ferrari pre-owned car
- Exterior and interior pre-sale preparation
- 24 months of Ferrari roadside assistance
- Minimum of 24 months Ferrari coverage
Technical Inspection
Before any Ferrari can be declared Approved, it must first pass a series of extremely rigorous technical checks and controls drawn up by the Factory. This complete and detailed Ferrari-approved inspection is carried out by factory-trained technicians who specialize in evaluating Ferraris of all types.
The inspection involves no less than 101 different checks covering everything from the running gear to the electrical systems, bodywork and interior. It concludes with a test drive by a factory trained technician.
Any issues that emerge will be repaired using Ferrari parts only.
Once a car has passed the technical inspection, a written evaluation is drawn up and will be presented to any potential new owner.
A Ferrari approved technical inspection includes:
- Running gear function tests
- Electrical system function tests
- Check of fluid levels
- Examination of suspension, brakes, cooling system and steering system
- Secondary controls of air conditioner, instrumentation and safety systems
- Lights, wheel and tire (tread depth and pressure) function tests
- 101 individual points are inspected
Provenance and Preparation
At the end of each inspection, a detailed list of the checks and repairs carried out will be placed in the glove compartment. In addition, where available, the car undergoes an independent title inspection check to examine mileage, ownership history, and identify any outstanding liens.
Vehicle Coverage
A Ferrari Approved has the advantage of a Ferrari warranty for up to 24 months in the US. The exterior paintwork and interior trim are restored to a condition appropriate to the vehicle's age and mileage, and the car also receives a full and thorough detailing using only the finest quality materials. The vehicle document folder is checked to ensure that all the correct documents are present and complete. The end result is a car prepared to Ferrari standards that wears the Prancing Horse with pride. Excluded are parts including wear items such as tires, brake pads and disks, or parts, which have to be exchanged due to normal wear.
