The Benefits of OEM Parts

If you need routine maintenance for your new vehicle, or repairs for your used car, OEM (original equipment manufacturer) parts can offer you benefits that you won’t find with aftermarket or generic alternatives. While aftermarket parts can sometimes come with a lower price point, aftermarket parts can’t match the quality, ease, and precision of OEM parts. Get to know about what makes OEM parts unique below with the Western Motors Merced service team!

Why Use Genuine OEM Parts?

When you’re looking for parts for your vehicle, you may come across many aftermarket or generic versions. While it may be tempting to grab a generic part to use in your repairs, generic parts can reduce the performance of your vehicle, and in some cases, even void your vehicle’s warranty. Meanwhile, genuine OEM parts offer: 

• Precision Fit – OEM parts are crafted by the manufacturer to specifically fit your make and model while generic parts are made to suit as many vehicles as possible. 
• High Quality – OEM parts are fabricated with the same equipment and materials that went into creating your vehicle; creating a high-quality part that you can rely on. 
• Warranty Coverage – OEM car parts back their quality up with included warranty protection. 
• Simple Ordering – With generic parts, it can often be confusing to find the right part to fit your vehicle. Ordering OEM car parts is more straightforward. 

Choose From a Variety of OEM Car Parts

What kind of OEM car parts are available for your vehicle? Whether you need a simple replacement, major repair, or are looking to upgrade your vehicle — you’ll find car parts designed to meet your needs. A few highlights include: 

• Windshield Wipers
• Outside Mirrors
• All-Season Floor Mats 
• Roof Mount Bike Attachment 
• Wheels
• Tires
• Lift kits
• And much, much more!
