So the engine has 5 years/100k miles warranty so you still have some time on warranty to cover any issues there.

Most dealers thoroughly inspect a trade in and use any findings to reduce trade in value so they should know if they found any issues.
I would have the dealer provide you their inspection report to see what they inspected or didn't inspect and work from there.
