What is covered under Nissan NP200 used car warranty?

By Farzana Chaumoo

We take a look at the warranty that comes with a Nissan pre-owned NP200.

 

Nissan Intelligent Choice for Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles

Behind every Nissan Intelligent Choice certified pre-owned car, is the performance, innovation and reliability of Nissan. It goes through a rigorous certification process and ensures a minimum Nissan warranty. Additionally, Nissan Intelligent Choice customers benefit from Lifestyle Rewards like free parking, fuel rewards and a free rental car.

Nissan Intelligent Choice cars are exclusively available from Nissan Intelligent Choice dealers.

 

Are Nissan NP200 bakkies certified as a Nissan Intelligent Choice car?
 In order to be considered for certification, the Nissan NP200 would usually be:

• under 4 years old and
• have less than 100 000 kms on the odometer

Nissan then puts the NP200 through two comprehensive checks: first a vehicle integrity check, then a thorough 160-Point Check Inspection of the bakkie itself. This is to ensure that only the very best vehicles receive the Nissan Intelligent Choice seal of approval – so you can enjoy the same peace of mind as when you buy new.

 

Minimum 2 Years and 50 000 kms Warranty

Every Nissan Intelligent Choice used vehicle comes with the manufacturer-approved warranty of a minimum of 24 months/50 000km (whichever comes first). You can also opt to upgrade to a pre-owned warranty, as long as your car is serviced in accordance with manufacturer requirements. Please contact your Nissan dealer for more information.

 

Remaining Service Plan

All Nissan Intelligent Choice vehicles are sold with the balance of the factory service plan, if applicable.
