Certified 8010s ?????

Hello to all who may have an answer to my question. I recently purchased an 05 8010 and when I asked my dealer if it was certified he claimed that it was basically a dealers choice or the owners choice as to if they wanted to pay for the updates. My question is does caseih certify all pre machines by me contacting them or was the dealer right. My thoughts are if caseih wants these machines to be reliable and for the customers to be happy then they would certify them to make that happen. So far I am happy when she is running but I have had a few bugs here and there. The alternator went out and it fried the ecm in the process. Down for 5 days wasnt to happy about that one....
