When
something goes wrong with your vehicle it is always a bad situation and can be
very time consuming to have to deal with. Also, you seem to not want to waste
too much money on this problem, so naturally you may go to the corner auto
parts store rather than the actual dealership to get it fixed. Well, have those
auto parts store ever told you that they most likely use an aftermarket part
rather than your Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part? Our dealership
would like to make you aware of the dangers with choosing Aftermarket parts
over your OEM parts.Aftermarket parts:
• The quality of aftermarket parts has no guarantee since they were not manufactured by the actual car company.
• There is too much of a selection with aftermarket parts and if your body shop chooses the wrong one, then your car may not run properly.
• There is a very small chance that aftermarket parts will fit and function properly compared to factory parts.
• Lower cost, but also most of the time lower quality.
