Authentic OEM Parts for Your Buick Encore in Ottumwa, IA

When it comes time to replace the parts in your Buick Encore, you’re going to face the decision of whether to purchase OEM parts or aftermarket parts. Sure, aftermarket parts may be slightly cheaper, but at the end of the day, OEM parts are worth the extra cost because of their guaranteed quality, included warranty, and simple part selection. Here at our Buick parts center, our experienced team of mechanics will always encourage you to purchase OEM parts instead taking the risk with aftermarket parts.

So what exactly are OEM parts and how are they different from aftermarket parts? OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer, and they’re built by the auto manufacturer. The OEM parts that we carry here at our Buick parts center are the exact same parts that came with your Buick Encore or other Buick, GMC, or Chevrolet vehicle. Because OEM parts are identical to the components you’re replacing, there is a greater assurance of quality, and these parts give you a greater peace of mind in its performance and familiarity.

Another advantage of OEM parts over aftermarket parts is that they often come with a warranty. Most automakers back up their parts with at least a one-year warranty, which gives you extra reassurance. Finally, a major disadvantage of aftermarket parts is the overwhelming selection. If you’re not familiar with the different manufacturers, it can be extremely difficult to choose. In comparison, OEM parts typically only come in one high-quality type, eliminating the difficulty surrounding parts shopping.
