Aftermarket Parts
Aftermarket parts are designed and produced for a variety of car brands, and they are often marketed as universal solutions. However, these parts rarely fit with the same precision as intended by the OEM and they may not be as durable. Aftermarket parts may even require modifications, which launch a different set of headaches. Furthermore, aftermarket parts come with a very short warranty or none at all, and they could possibly void your vehicle’s warranty. If you decide to go with an aftermarket part, make sure you research your options and you’re comfortable with the risks of an aftermarket part.
Bottom Line
After you’ve spent tens of thousands of dollars on purchasing a vehicle, you owe it to yourself to protect that investment by opting for the more expensive, but higher-quality and longer-lasting Mopar auto parts. These parts are held to the highest standards of quality by the OEM, and they’re guaranteed to function as well, if not better than, your car’s original parts. With the higher risk of failure, the potential to void your car’s warranty and decrease its resale value, the initial savings of aftermarket parts could pale in comparison to the long-term costs. And the peace of mind from OEM parts can be priceless.
