Pumpkin Certified
A vehicle Certification Program is based on the expertise and talent of the people who manage it.
No dealership comes close to having the expertise of a person like Franck FREON when it comes down to driving, evaluating, understanding and assessing a vehicle.
Despite the size of larger dealerships like F.C Kerbeck, BMW of Atlantic City, Precision Cars of Atlantic City, Lexus of Atlantic City and Boardwalk Honda, PUMPKIN FINE CARS & EXOTICS is in a league of its own thanks to Franck’s background.
FRANCK FREON DRIVES EVERY SINGLE VEHICLE THAT BARES HIS NAME WHETHER IT IS A $5,000 TRADE-IN OR A $100,000 EXOTIC CAR.
What are the steps of the Pumpkin Certification Process ?
First Step : The vehicle has to have a PERFECT TITLE HISTORY (Experian, CarFax) that includes guaranteed odometer, no accident reported, no frame damage reported and no flood damage reported.
Second Step : The freshly bought vehicle is test driven by Franck Freon who puts together a list of comments and recommendations.
Third Step : The vehicle is brought to our ASE Certified Automotive Work Shop to evaluate Franck’s comments and take the necessary steps to address them.
Fourth Step : Our ASE Certified Automotive Work Shop goes through a check-up list that includes -
- Change Oil + Oil filter if necessary according to manufacturer specifications
- Check Transmission fluid level and quality
- Check Differential(s) fluid level and quality
- Check Transfer Case / AWD unit fluid level and quality
- Check cooling system for leaks and coolant quality
- Check engine hoses and belts
- Check tire pressure
- Check exhaust system
- Check suspension elements for safety
- Check brakes for safety
- Check battery
- Check air filter
- Check lights (bulbs, lenses)

Fifth Step : The vehicle is then test driven one more time to confirm its technical readiness.
Sixth Step : The vehicle is fully detailed, buffed and waxed, carpets and mats steamed, engine cleaned, tire shined, clock adjusted, radio stations selected and trip odometer reset. Carpets are protected with fresh paper mats as the last touch.
The vehicle is now Pumpkin Certified, Showroom Ready and available for purchase.
