The Benefits of Using OEM Parts at Curry Honda
Many drivers return to our service center at Curry Honda, having experienced great results when working with our trained technicians. These results are in no small part thanks to the use of OEM parts from Honda. OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. At Curry Honda, we prioritized the use of OEM parts, ensuring that your vehicle is operating with equipment designed for optimal performance. Learn more about the benefits of using OEM parts below.
Budget
Aftermarket parts are often less expensive than OEM parts. As the old saying goes, you get what you pay for. While the upfront cost for an aftermarket part may seem like a win, the savings won't last long. Since these parts are bound to malfunction, you could easily wind up with a vehicle that has inoperable. Paying a little bit more upfront for OEM parts will save you the hassle and cost of fixing more major components of your vehicle in the future.
Longevity
When mechanics use aftermarket parts to fix a problem, they are often creating a bigger one down the road. These parts are often not up to the quality standard of OEM parts. This can lead to premature damage, excessive wear and tear on other components of your vehicle, and even lead to major malfunctions while you're driving. Using aftermarket parts is not worth of degradation it will cause to your Honda model.
Using OEM parts will improve the chances of longevity for your Honda vehicle. Go figure: using parts designed for the vehicle actually makes a difference. Again, while after-market parts may be affordable at the time of a repair, they could cost you big down the road.
Top Quality
Another benefit of using OEM parts is guaranteed quality assurance. These parts are designed for your Honda model, and Honda has gone through the painstaking process of ensuring each part will work every single time. Aftermarket parts can't promise you that same security. Don't waste your time buying a piece of equipment that might not fit or function properly.
Optimum Performance
Since OEM parts have undergone a thorough and meticulous quality assurance process, they are set to meet the manufacturer's standards of performance. This means your Honda model will run how it should, without experiencing any degradation in areas like fuel efficiency, safety, or handling. Aftermarket parts can't promise that same security. It's widely known that aftermarket auto parts fail much faster than OEM parts. This is due to their imperfect design, which leads to increased wear and tear, as these parts aren't optimized to work with the other equipment that runs your vehicle.
Other Perks of OEM Parts
Buying OEM parts from Honda will grant you access to Honda's customer support network. Aftermarket parts definitely do not have the same advantage. If something goes wrong with your aftermarket part, don't expect a snappy and reasonable response from the manufacturer.
Using OEM parts from Honda can also grant you access to additional warranties on your parts. This can vary, depending on the part and the manufacturer. More often than not, the manufacturer will be happy to replace an OEM part that is not up to their standards.
