CarBravo Certified Pre-Owned Program Review

Overview

CarBravo is a General Motors program that sells certified used vehicles through authorized GM-brand dealerships. Any vehicle sold through the CarBravo program is certified by General Motors, whether it’s a GM-brand vehicle or another make. Not all authorized GM dealerships participate in the CarBravo program, so check your local dealers to confirm their participation. BravoBudget is an extension of the program that sells qualified older vehicles.
