The parts
department at Gillman Honda San Antonio sees plenty of people who prefer to do
their service work themselves. And when we do, we recommend using genuine OEM
Honda parts. The term OEM - or original equipment manufacturer - identifies parts
that are the same as those that came with your car when it rolled off the line.
These are the parts that Honda trusts in all their cars, and they come with a
great number of benefits.
For example:
- Peace of mind - OEM car parts are the ones that Honda uses and approves of. You never have to worry about compatibility problems or dips in efficiency when using these parts, since your car has been using them since Day One. And OEM parts generally come backed by the manufacturer's warranty, so you've got the satisfaction of knowing you're covered no matter what.
- Maintaining your warranty - Car manufacturers can't guarantee parts that they don't make or use themselves, and so often replacing an original part with an aftermarket component can void your warranty. Always check in with the experts at our parts department before committing to an aftermarket part, since they may cause warranty problems down the line
- Reliability - Aftermarket parts can vary widely in quality and longevity, and are often a crapshoot as to whether or not they're an improvement over the original part. With genuine OEM components, you know exactly what's in the box - the same parts your car was designed with
- Efficiency - Speaking of design, since your car was built with OEM parts in mind, using these components keeps your car running as Honda intended. This means you don't have to sacrifice fuel efficiency or power when replacing a part
Perhaps the biggest advantage to using genuine OEM parts is just how easy they are to order. Simply drop by our parts department, tell us the model you're working on, and we'll have you out the door and back under the hood in no time.
