As your Cadillac dealer, there are many reasons why we only use genuine Cadillac parts. While there are generic parts available, we won’t use them. It may seem confusing to use only one type of part when there are other options available. These are several reasons the genuine Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts are the first and best choice.
Quality
The OEM parts we use are manufactured to the identical standard as the ones that were originally used to build your Cadillac. They come off the same production line, and they’ve made to the same exacting standard. They are a known quality, and they will automatically fit exactly where they are meant to. A genuine part will also always last longer and work better.
Generic parts are the other option. They are made by numerous companies, and they’re designed to fit a variety of cars. To fit the widest possible number of vehicles, these parts are made to standard sizes. It’s difficult to find a generic part that is certain to fit your Cadillac. If the part is available, it may still need some modification to fit.
Reliability
The Cadillac engineers and designers who built your car designed all of the parts. Before any model of vehicle is released, it has to undergo a huge range of tests. These tests consider safety, reliability, and a host of other factors. These tests not only test the complete vehicle but also test all of its parts. Since we’ve seen that OEM parts are identical to your car’s original parts, their OEM replacement parts are just as reliable.
Generic parts are not used to build any vehicle, and they are not tested to the same rigorous standards. They are intended to replace individual parts, but there is no way to be sure of how they will interact with the other components in your car.
Warranty
All the OEM parts we use have a manufacturer’s warranty from Cadillac. This attests that the part will function as intended. In the unlikely event of a problem with the part, it will be replaced within the warranty period. This warranty is accepted by all Cadillac agencies and dealerships. In addition, we provide a warranty on our labor. We can do this because our technicians know exactly what parts they are working with.
Generic parts don’t usually carry a warranty. Without a warranty, if there is a problem with the part, there is no recourse for a refund or replacement. We also could not give a warranty on any work using generic parts as we don’t know how reliable they are. Your safety is very important to us We can’t be certain that any generic parts are completely safe and would operate exactly as expected in your vehicle.
