An Overview of OEM Parts

When you need new RAM parts for your vehicle, we can’t stress enough the importance of choosing OEM parts at Cook Chrysler Dodge RAM. When it comes to your RAM truck, which we have no doubt you love testing to its limits, you don’t want to compromise.

What are OEM Parts?

OEM is an acronym that stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. OEM parts are replacement parts that are built by the same manufacturers that build new RAM trucks. That means they are quality parts produced to meet the strictest of standards.

That also means these are parts that are sized and shaped the way your original part was, they will fit your truck perfectly, and they will work the way they are supposed to.

What are the Benefits of Using OEM Parts?

There are lots of perks to using OEM parts. As we mentioned, they are built by RAM manufacturers, so they are specially tailored to your vehicle. There’s no second-guessing if your part will be just what you need. Plus, our team will ensure you are getting the most updated parts too.

OEM parts also have a higher quality than aftermarket parts, so you know you are getting something you can trust. And, due to their superior quality, they include warranty coverage, while most aftermarket parts do not.

Can I Order an Aftermarket Part Online Instead?

Chances are, if you are shopping online for an aftermarket part, you’ll find one that is cheaper. However, the connotation of “cheap” certainly stretches to an aftermarket part. It isn’t a part that you can count on. It is, most likely, cheaply made to be able to be sold at a lower price point, so it definitely won’t have the quality of an OEM part.

Additionally, you have no guarantee it will even fit your vehicle, much less do what you need it to do. In fact, you could very well find yourself replacing it again down the road.
