Overview
Buick has long offered Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) vehicles under the GM Certified banner, but the brand transitioned to the CarBravo program in June 2026, along with Chevrolet and GMC. With two tiers of coverage, CarBravo includes GM and non-GM vehicles. More than 1,600 Chevrolet, Buick, and GMC dealers have enrolled in the CarBravo Certified Used Program. Cadillac vehicles will continue to operate under its own CPO program independently. Here’s what’s new and what to expect.
