When it comes to replacing the Mopar® Chrysler parts within your vehicle’s engine, you may have heard mechanics and technicians alike say that OEM parts are better than aftermarket ones. While it could be the more expensive option, OEM Mopar parts almost always make the better choice for your vehicle. If you’ve wondered why that is, here is the explanation you’ve been looking for!
Better Coverage
In the unlikely event that the replacement part fails, drivers who chose an aftermarket replacement may be required to purchase another part on their own dime. OEM parts, on the other hand, come with a manufacturer warranty, and can be replaced at no charge should something be amiss.
Exact Fit
All too often, aftermarket components are manufactured with the idea that they can fit in many different engines, a sort of one-size-fits-all situation. OEM parts are made specifically with your vehicle’s engine in mind and are fabricated to fit exactly into your engine’s structure. In the context of mechanics, a sloppy fit could mean disaster down the road.
Quality Assured
OEM parts are fabricated by the same manufacturer as the original components in your vehicle’s engine, unlike aftermarket components. Aftermarket components can be fabricated by just about anyone, including companies that do not know the components’ original dimensions. By purchasing OEM parts, drivers can assure that the quality of their engines does not take a dive due to inauthentic components.
