Complete vehicle protection.Certified. Registered. Connected.
One vehicle. Multiple layers of protection. One certification.
The standard
FORGED CERTIFIED™ is the professional vehicle protection standard, FC-VPS 01. It's earned, not bought — built on approved protection technology, professional application, a documented installation, and a registered protection history that stays with the vehicle.
When a vehicle carries the mark, it means the protection was done right and there's a record to prove it. Every certification follows the same five steps.
Required FORGED protection systems are professionally applied or installed through a participating program.
The vehicle, VIN, participating dealer and installed protection systems are documented.
The vehicle and its protection record are registered through FORGED CONNECT™.
The vehicle receives an individual FORGED CERTIFIED™ certification number and digital credential.
Certification status and the vehicle's documented protection record can be digitally accessed and verified.
Why FORGED Certified
A vehicle is more than its paint. FORGED CERTIFIED™ is designed to bring multiple professional protection technologies, approved coverage programs and ownership benefits together under one certification. The exact protection package can be configured around the needs of the dealer and customer.
