The name of the game when it comes to vehicle repair is original equipment parts. OEM parts are key to the safe operation of your Acura. Choosing original equipment parts from the original equipment manufacturer gives you several benefits, the least of which is that you know the part will fit perfectly onto your vehicle. Read on to learn why you need to choose an OEM part and repair your vehicle at your Acura dealership.
4 Reasons to Choose Your Acura Dealership and OEM Parts
1. Safety
Imagine that you have been rear-ended, and the vehicle was repaired but with aftermarket parts. Unfortunately, you were rear-ended again, only this time, the crumple zones on your vehicle didn’t keep you and your family from harm.
Aftermarket parts, especially body panels, may not fit your vehicle as they should or have the appropriate crumple zones. Choosing an OEM part after an accident ensures that you and your family are as safe as possible in the future.
2. Warranties
You could choose to select an economy aftermarket part to save money in the short run. However, this has long-term effects. The cheap part can void your existing vehicle warrant, making your repairs much more costly in the future. Additionally, cheap economy parts will not have a warranty themselves.
When you choose an OEM part for your vehicle repair, most manufacturers back their craftsmanship with a one-year warranty. Additionally, when you let the experts at your local dealership install that OEM part, most dealerships will back their work as well. This means you are protected in the event that there is an unexpected flaw in the part that has been installed.
3. Easy Choices
Don’t spend hours researching brands and surfing through reviews for parts the next time you need a repair. There are thousands of aftermarket parts and hundreds of brands for you to dig through. Swing into your local dealership: they can look up your vehicle’s year, make, and model to pull an OEM part that will fit your car. This means you will have a low-stress repair experience.
4. Fast Turn Around
Choosing your Acura dealer and an OEM part for your car means you can return to the road fast. The dealership service department keeps many original equipment parts on hand and can get them shipped in quickly. This means you have little to no delay before you are back onto the road.
