Buying Used 2013 or Newer or 2012 or Older?

CPO does come with extended warranty, but it isn't bumper to bumper. CPO cars usually receive more maintenance/inspection before resale, and they are usually in pretty good condition.

Just curious what the lifetime warranty is for in your case?

If it needs to be CPO for the extended warranty to tag along, then absolutely. But CPO typically just states that the car has been inspected prior to sale, which the dealership should check the vehicle anyway.

CPO standards do vary by dealerships, as some dealerships have different criteria as far as what they look at prior to certifying used cars. Also, what if you buy a pre-owned Nissan at a non-Nissan dealership?

CPO may or may not come with extended warranty. When you look at used cars, it'll have that form on the window with either "Warranty" or "As Is - No Warranty" checked. If all CPO vehicles came with warranties, the finance manager (the dude that tries to sell you extended warranties, GAP, etc.) wouldn't make any money off of you.

My lifetime warranty is powertrain warranty.
