What Are the Benefits of OEM Chevy Parts?

Ever wondered “What are OEM parts?” OEM, or “Original Equipment Manufacturer” parts are built by the same manufacturer as your vehicle – in this case, that manufacturer would be Chevrolet/General Motors (GM).

OEM Chevy parts are built using the same materials as the original parts you’re replacing on your vehicle and compared to aftermarket parts, they will tend to be more expensive, but they offer greater reliability. So, what are the benefits of OEM Chevy parts? Learn more with Midway Auto Dealerships, below!

What Are Aftermarket Parts?

Aftermarket parts are manufactured by a third party unrelated to Chevrolet or GM. Unlike OEM parts, aftermarket parts are manufactured at a high volume and are designed to fit a wide range of makes and models. They do tend to be more affordable than genuine Chevrolet parts, but this is because they offer a mediocre fit at best. Auto manufacturers do not tend to recommend aftermarket parts for this reason.

Chevrolet OEM Parts vs. Aftermarket

In addition to quality, there are a few more reasons to choose genuine Chevrolet parts over aftermarket for your Grand Island repair project:

  • Smaller Selection: No matter if you’re shopping for special performance parts or a replacement part, you’ll never have to stress about comparing quality and price. You can always rest assured you’re getting the appropriate parts at a reasonable price.
  • Warranty Coverage: Chevrolet OEM parts are covered by a Limited Parts Warranty, giving you peace of mind when you take your newly repaired car out on Hastings roads. If you choose to use aftermarket parts, you run the risk of jeopardizing your warranty coverage if it’s proven that the part damaged your vehicle.
