Genuine OEM Parts vs. Aftermarket Parts

When something goes wrong with your vehicle, it's never at a convenient time. Elmwood Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram is here to fix any problems that may arise with your vehicle, whether it be the brakes, suspension, radiator or something less obvious. The great thing about coming to Elmwood Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram for repairs? We use Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts. While you are free to use aftermarket parts, we'd like to make you aware of the potential downsides of not using 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 greater chance that aftermarket parts will not fit or function as well as OEM parts. 
• Lower cost can impact part quality.
• They can potentially void your vehicle's warranty.
  

Genuine OEM parts:

• OEM parts are built specifically to fit into your vehicle.
• Elmwood Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram will always have updated parts since we are the first to know when parts are being updated.
• Parts will more than likely come with a warrant..
• You are less likely to experience the same part failure repeatedly if you replace the broken part with an OEM part.
