What are the Benefits of Honda OEM Parts vs Aftermarket Parts?
Sustainable Quality that Lasts
There is a huge aftermarket for Honda parts. Honda enthusiasts love to customize their rides and tweak them for optimal performance. While there may be a few brands that offer performance-parts engineered on state-of-the-art equipment, the majority are knock-off parts that are meant to mock the function of OEM parts. These knock-off parts are easy to spot. They are made of cheap tinny base metals and gravity-forged with nearly no physical integrity. Aftermarket wheels, for example, have caused many catastrophic failures. Search the internet for "gravity-forged alloy wheel failures" and you will come up with some shocking results.
OEM parts typically feature specially formulated alloy metals, ABS plastics, and quality rubbers that maintain their flexibility in a broad range of temperatures. These can give you the peace of mind that you need as you drive through the city.
Support Backed by the Manufacturer
OEM Honda parts are generally guaranteed with a limited warranty on nearly every mechanical and chassis component. This ensures accountability against manufacturer defects. Whether the parts are produced by a division of Honda itself or contracted with independent manufacturers who serve the automotive industry at large, you can bet that these billion-dollar corporations have contractually bound the manufacturers to produce parts at exceptional quality standards. These manufacturers will heavily scrutinize samples from every batch produced under the same conditions.
Using aftermarket parts on any of your electromechanical systems may void the factory warranty. The influence of one malformed aftermarket part to cause a catastrophic failure in the entire system is the reason. Honda spends billions of dollars on engineering their vehicles to perform flawlessly and affirm their world-class reputation for reliability. Why would you accept anything less for your Honda?
