What Are the Benefits of Chevrolet OEM Parts?

Whether you’re browsing for a replacement part in Charlotte or a brand new accessory in Rock Hill, SC, you might be wondering which Chevy parts get our stamp of approval at Rick Hendrick City Chevrolet. While there are a wide variety of aftermarket parts on the market, our technicians highly recommend Chevrolet OEM parts. Why? OEM parts are made by the original equipment manufacturer – in this case, Chevy. That means Chevrolet OEM parts are built by Chevy, for Chevy. And that means you’re getting high-quality equipment that will really go the extra mile on those Gastonia and Concord roads! Find out everything you need to know about Chevrolet parts, below.

What Are Aftermarket Parts?

If Chevrolet OEM parts are made by Chevrolet, who makes aftermarket products? Aftermarket parts refer to any products made by a third party. These parts are produced at a high volume, and they are built to fit a larger range of makes and models. While you might find cheaper auto parts if you shop aftermarket alternatives, you get what you pay for. These parts often fit poorly and simply can’t make the same quality guarantees that a genuine Chevrolet product can make. Plus, you can always shop our parts specials to save some money on your purchase!

Genuine Chevy Parts vs. Aftermarket

So, which Chevy parts should you shop when you head to our parts department in Charlotte? We’ve gone through a few reasons, but here are a few more things to think about before you make your purchase:

• Selection: The variety of aftermarket parts can overwhelm any buyer, and it’s necessary to compare prices and reviews for third-party products. But when you shop Chevy OEM parts, there’s just one part to choose for your replacement – no guesswork involved.
• Warranty: Genuine Chevy parts and GM parts are covered by your Limited Parts Warranty for extra peace of mind. Not only are aftermarket parts not covered, but using these third-party products can even invalidate your vehicle’s factory powertrain warranty!
