What are the Benefits of OEM Parts vs Aftermarket Parts?
OEM Parts have Superior Quality
For companies like Toyota, the manufacturing processes and parts designs that are seen on their modern vehicles are the result of decades of meticulous design, manufacturing processes and real-world testing in millions of vehicles. Aftermarket parts, on the other hand, carry no guarantee that they will even properly fit on the vehicle at all, much less last under the enormous strain that most car parts are subjected to.
Although aftermarket parts may look similar or even identical to original equipment manufacturer parts, the difference in quality can be truly staggering. Aftermarket auto parts are often made with cheap replacements for the high-grade materials used in OEM parts. Although this can be difficult or impossible to discern for the untrained buyer, such use of replacement materials can cause these parts to fail astonishingly fast. With OEM parts, you know that you are always getting the absolute best. Why take a chance?
Proper Fit and Ease of Replacement
With OEM parts, the chance of receiving a defective part or one that doesnāt fit is virtually nil. This is yet another reason to only go with original manufacturer parts for your Toyota car or truck. You can contact us or visit our parts center to inquire about any questions you might have.
