What brands do you sell used?
Our used inventory includes Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram vehicles alongside other popular brands like Subaru, Chevrolet, Hyundai, and more. All used vehicles are inspected before sale.
How do I know if a used vehicle has been inspected?
At Leavens Chrysler, every used vehicle receives a mechanical inspection before being offered for sale. This covers major components like the engine, transmission, brakes, suspension, and safety systems.
We can review the inspection report with you and explain any reconditioning or repairs that were completed before the vehicle was listed.
Do you provide a vehicle history report?
Yes, for most used vehicles we can provide a vehicle history report that outlines prior ownership, reported accidents, registration history, and other important details. Reviewing this report is an important step in understanding the background of any used vehicle you are considering.
Our team can walk you through the report and answer questions about what certain entries mean.
What are my rights when buying a used vehicle from a dealer in Ontario?
When you buy from a registered Ontario Motor Vehicle Industry Council (OMVIC) dealer, you are protected by provincial consumer protection laws. These include requirements around clear disclosure of key vehicle information, and all-in pricing.
Buying from a registered dealer gives you more protection than a private sale, where many of these consumer protections do not apply.
Can I finance a used vehicle?
Yes. Our financing team works with a range of lenders to offer finance options for used vehicles. Term length, interest rate, and required down payment will depend on the vehicle, your credit profile, and current lender programs.
You can apply for financing online in a few minutes, or visit our Financing Centre to discuss options in person.
Do I need perfect credit to get approved?
No. We work with customers in a wide variety of credit situations, including first-time buyers and those rebuilding credit. Our goal is to find a structure that fits your budget while matching you with the right used vehicle.
Completing a finance application helps us understand your situation and present realistic payment options before you visit.
Can I trade in my current vehicle toward a used CDJR vehicle?
Yes, you can trade in your current vehicle to reduce the amount you need to finance and potentially lower your monthly payment. We’ll appraise your trade based on its condition, kilometres, market demand, and history.
Bring your current registration and any service records when you visit, so we can provide the most accurate trade-in value.
What extra costs should I budget for when buying used?
In addition to the vehicle price, you should budget for HST, licensing, and any optional products you choose, such as extended warranty coverage, rust protection, or winter tires. We’ll provide a transparent, all-in price breakdown so you understand the full cost before you sign.
Our team can also help you estimate insurance costs and discuss ongoing maintenance budgeting.
Is an extended warranty worth it on a used vehicle?
Extended warranty or service contracts can be a good fit if you want predictable repair costs and plan to keep the vehicle for several years. On many used models, you can choose coverage levels and term lengths that match your driving habits.
We’ll review what is already covered by the existing warranty (if any) and help you decide whether extended coverage makes sense for your situation.
How do I start the process of buying a used CDJR vehicle at Leavens Chrysler?
Start by browsing our used inventory online and saving a few vehicles you like. Then you can book a test drive, contact our team with questions, or submit a finance application so we can prepare payment options in advance.
Our goal is to make your used vehicle purchase straightforward, transparent, and comfortable from first visit to final delivery.
