CPO Warranty Left on my Car?

Guys,
2011 x5 50i
I was reading about transfer CPO warranty from non-BMW dealer before January 1, 2014 rule.
So I can see in my AutoCheck report that the truck was CPO on 02/04/2013 current 4y/57k miles

02/04/2013 RALEIGH, NC
36,853
BMW Authorized Center VEHICLE IN DEALER INVENTORY (COLOR REPORTED AS BLACK)
CERTIFIED AS BMW APPROVED CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED VEHICLE

Is this mean that I still have CPO warranty for 2 more years or till 100k miles?

The easiest (and surest) way to confirm warranty expiration date is to call BMWNA or any dealer. Have your VIN handy.

Based on what I know, you no longer have a warranty due to the purchase from non BMW dealer. However, the warranty would be available had you purchased from private seller. Call BMWNA to make sure.

Today I just transferred the CPO warranty on my 2011 that I got yesterday. Bought the car private party and the original CPO purchase I think was back in 2013. Since it was before the cutoff transfer was complete and didn't cost me a dime.

That's what I was thinking on mine as BMW dealer sold the car in 2013 too as a CPO. But I called BMWNA and they are saying it doesn't show anything for them and I need to contact the dealer who sold it.

Was the car sold to someone after being CPO'ed? Or was it sold in auction after staying on the dealer lot? If its the former, then you probably still have some CPO coverage left. Otherwise, it is likely that the dealer pulled CPO certification before selling it in auction.

BTW, cars CPO'ed prior to 2014 should have no problem transferring, even if bought from a non-BMW dealer (and non-private party transaction).

All warranties begin when the car was first sold, be it 2010 or 2012 for a MY 2011. You need to find out what the date is when it was first sold. Six years later or 100k miles later you are out of warranty. Figure you have ~18 months left.

I have had good luck just calling my local dealership and having them verify whether it's truly CPO or not.

How can BMW sell you an OEM warranty when your car is already out of the factory warranty?

I'm not sure these are bmw warranties - are you sure your dealer isn't trying to sell you a 3rd party one?

Yes, CPO is transferred to you with no additional paperwork or fees

As I have been shopping for a while, I know this is no longer true. Given current rules of engagement by BMWNA even if you buy a CPO car from private party that still has warranty left, there is a charge to move the CPO into your name. Also, if a CPO is sold/traded to a non-BMW dealer the CPO expires with that transaction.

Hope this helps.

I don't know, how to know? On the quote says Gemain BMW of Naples and I called them to send me that quote. Can they sell something else and not tell me? If it is like that I will sue them.

There is an inspection that the car has to pass for $250. If it pass, they will refund the $250 and sell you the warranty, If it fails, you will lose the $ and no warranty applies.

From what I know. You can transfer the CPO if you buy it privately, which is a small fee. You can't transfer if you buy from a non-BMW dealer.

AFAIK, there is no BMW warranty beyond 7yrs/100K miles. The deductible is $50 - there is no variable deductible. There are no Gold plus or silver plans. vehicles out of warranty are only eligible for "powertrain plus" from BMW. Yeah, I'm pretty certain these are not BMW warranties, but a 3rd party warranty that your BMW dealer is trying to sell.

Please see attached for a comprehensive list of BMW warranties, and MSRP.

You could ask your dealer to provide you with a sample contract, and see who the underwriter is . That should be interesting.

sounds like a rip-off. the dealer stands to gain at least $250, no matter what the outcome.

i just did, I'm just stating that based on my read of the rules, b/c the CPO was stamped before 2014, it doesn't matter who sold him the car, the CPO should have been in tact.


I know for a fact, I've called BMWNA a few times to clarify this with my actual car. Each time, the rep had to pause, read the rules themselves over and over again, put me on hold before confirming the info.

But at the end of the day, if his local BMW dealer doesn't recongize the CPO, then it's not there Now are they saying any car sold through non-dealer (not private) is not eligible regardless of CPO timestamp?

so they've changed the rules again?! It has been if the datestamp of the CPO is prior to 2014, a private pary or a non-dealer sale would retain the CPO and transfer to you at no additional charge or paperwork.

The last time I called about this was back in February. I called both my dealer and BMWNA to confirm my VIN which was CPO'd in Dec 2013 still had CPO on it.

AFAIK, these are the rules from Jan 1, 2014 onwards. BMW changed the rules because, apparently the non-BMW dealers were making a killing selling cars with "CPO" coverage (CPO cars traded in), and this was impacting BMW CPO sales.
