Buying From Serra Kia of Gardendale

Serra Kia of Gardendale sells new Kia vehicles and usually takes trade ins, so its used lot is a mix of brands. A certified car from the brand program comes with a factory backed warranty. A used car that is not certified is sold on the same terms as any other used car, so read the window sticker. How certified cars work.

Whatever the grade, the grade is about the dealer. The car is its own question. Ask the dealer if an independent inspection is allowed before you sign. A good lot says yes.
