Jeep India has entered the certified pre-owned car business in India with Selected for You. Similar to what True Value is to Maruti Suzuki or U Trust is to Toyota, Selected for You will be accepting cars from any brands which can be traded for a new or a certified pre-owned Jeep vehicle. The company had already started pilot operations of the same in Delhi, Mumbai and Hyderabad in 2019. Presently it is functional at the company's 42 dealerships and will be have a larger presence of 65 dealerships by August 2020. The company has set-up a dedicated website for the same.

Jeep India mentions that the pre-owned Compass models that will be sold through the programme will go through a 125-point inspection check with a thorough verification of past ownership, service records along with running a test on the condition of the vehicle before selling it. The SUV will be offered with a warranty of 36 months or 60,000 kms ,whichever comes earlier and 24x7 roadside assistance, similar to a new car ownership. While the company has started with the Compass, it will be adding the other vehicles from its range subsequently.

"The Jeep Compass enjoys exceptional residual value in the Indian automobile market, and that is a great opportunity for our customers. Selected for You, being cultivated as a shop-in-shop business model, assures trust, confidence and peace of mind for customers. A certified pre-owned Jeep Compass under Selected for You, promises high quality, certified standards and will be as reliable as our straight from the factory model." commented, Partha Datta – President and Managing Director, FCA India.
