Subject: After market parts
Second - OEM parts are ALMOST ALWAYS significantly more expensive.
Insisting on the use of only OEM parts will result in increased costs to the insurance carriers and we all know what that will mean - HIGHER insurance costs to the consumer.
In most cases, the use of any repair parts will have a small effect on the resale cost or trade in of a vehicle, especially older vehicles.
I fully support the use of third-party after market repair parts to get my vehicle repaired and to keep my insurance costs down.
