Chevrolet OEM Parts Benefits

If you are looking for Chevrolet parts for your Chevy car, truck, or SUV, there are plenty of reasons why you should choose OEM parts. Yes, they are slightly more expensive than aftermarket parts, but OEM components are more trustworthy since they come from a Chevy manufacturing plant – just like your Chevy vehicle did. 

At Leson Chevrolet Company, Inc., we want every aspect of your Chevrolet vehicle to be safe, which is why when replacing your Chevy parts, we want you to understand the benefits that Chevrolet OEM parts and accessories provide. Contact us for more information and learn more about Chevrolet OEM parts benefits, below. 

What Are Chevrolet OEM Parts?

When you need parts for your vehicle, you will be asked to choose between one of two options: Chevy OEM parts or aftermarket parts. OEM stands for “original equipment manufacturer,” which means the original manufacturer of your vehicle makes your replacement parts, too. The materials and longevity are the same as the original parts. Other than “Chevrolet OEM parts,” you may also see these components referred to as “genuine Chevrolet parts.”

In contrast, aftermarket parts are built to fit multiple makes and models, which means they will not provide a precise fit when installed on your vehicle. Although less expensive, aftermarket parts could be more costly down the road. When a component does not fit as it should, repairs and other damages can occur. 

Luckily, New Orleans and Metairie residents do not have to worry about locating Chevy parts. You can choose us at Leson Chevrolet Company, Inc. for all of your Chevrolet parts and accessories. Whether you need a new oil filter, performance components, or anything else, we can supply it for you in Harvey. 

An Extended Look at the Benefits of Genuine Chevy Parts

Whether you choose aftermarket parts or Chevrolet OEM parts is up to you. However, we recommend keeping in mind the following before purchasing new car parts:

• OEM Parts Fit Your Chevy Like A Glove. OEM parts are factory-made by Chevrolet, unlike aftermarket parts that do not guarantee a good fit for your Chevrolet and could cause damage to the area and surrounding parts.
• Quality Guaranteed. You will never have to second guess the quality of the Chevy part you order or spend hours searching for the same piece with the correct fit.
• Time Saver. You do not need to spend hours looking for the part that will fit your vehicle correctly. Instead, contact our parts department and get your Chevy part ordered quickly and easily. 
• Long-Run Money Saver. Yes, aftermarket parts are cheaper upfront but likely to cost you more in the future due to an incorrect fit.
• Protect Your Warranty. When you choose aftermarket parts, you could void your Chevrolet’s warranty if the parts cause damage. Protect your warranty and your Chevrolet by sticking to genuine Chevy parts! Additionally, Chevrolet OEM parts come with their own parts warranty when purchased and installed at a certified dealership like ours. Aftermarket parts don’t offer the same protection.
