Earned, Not Assumed

Hawkesbury Certified.

Not every used vehicle on our lot wears this badge — only the ones that pass it. To become Hawkesbury Certified, a vehicle clears a 150-point inspection across six systems, gets fully reconditioned, and completes a road test signed off by one of our own licensed technicians.

Who Signs Off

“We don’t hand out the Hawkesbury Certified badge because a vehicle looks good in the lot photo. It earns it once every system’s been checked, every fluid’s been verified, and it’s been driven, not just started.”

Every inspection happens on-site, run by our own licensed technicians — not a third party, not a rotating contractor. The same 150-point process applies whether the vehicle is a Jeep, a Ram, or a trade-in from another brand entirely.

A vehicle only earns the Hawkesbury Certified name once it’s cleared every stage of that process, start to finish.

How We Compare

Hawkesbury Certified vs. factory CPO.

Factory certified programs can shift depending on the brand you’re shopping. Ours doesn’t move — every vehicle we certify goes through the same 150-point process, regardless of make.

FAQ

Questions about the Hawkesbury Certified badge.

What does the Hawkesbury Certified badge mean?

It means the vehicle has cleared our full in-house certification process: a 150-point inspection across six systems, professional reconditioning, and a completed road test signed off by one of our licensed technicians.

Does every used vehicle at Hawkesbury Chrysler carry the badge?

No. Only vehicles that meet all twelve points on our certification checklist are eligible to carry the Hawkesbury Certified badge. You’ll see it clearly marked on qualifying listings.

How does Hawkesbury Certified compare to a factory CPO program?

Factory CPO coverage depends on the brand and can differ from one program to the next. Hawkesbury Certified applies one fixed 150-point standard to every vehicle we certify, no matter the make, so the guarantee is the same regardless of what you drive off with.

What’s covered under the warranty?

Hawkesbury Certified vehicles come with a lifetime engine warranty included in the price, on top of a 48-hour money-back guarantee and a 30-day exchange window.

What if I want to return or swap my vehicle?

Within 48 hours of delivery, you can return the vehicle for a full refund, no questions asked. Within 30 days, you’re also welcome to exchange it for a different Hawkesbury Certified vehicle.

The badge only goes on vehicles that earn it.
