169-Point Inspection By Certified MechanicsIf a pre-owned vehicle is less than 6 model years old and has less than 80,000 actual miles on the odometer, then it's eligible to undergo our demanding 169-point Quality Check inspection process. On Ford F-Series trucks and E-Series vans, only vehicles up through the 350 series are eligible for certification; 450 series and higher are ineligible. Anything found to be below standards or deficient is repaired or replaced using only genuine Motorcraft® replacement parts. Only vehicles that pass this rigorous inspection become Ford Certified Pre-Owned vehicles.
