Whether you drive one of the latest Toyota models or a used Toyota car, you’ll eventually have to replace some parts if you hold onto your automobile long enough. As hard as it may be to believe when you’re looking at a new Toyota vehicle, all cars need new parts from time to time due to wear and tear.
The thing is, not all replacement parts are made equally. That’s why the replacement car parts we sell in our Toyota parts department and use in our Toyota service center are manufactured by the Toyota team. Read on to learn more about the genuine OEM Toyota parts our Waite Park, MN Toyota dealership offers.
OEM stands for original equipment manufacturer components. Carmakers manufacture OEM parts for the specific models they sell. The Toyota team manufactures Toyota parts using the same standards used to design and produce the vehicles that bear the storied Toyota name.
Considering the exacting standards employed to manufacture OEM parts, it’s not surprising that Toyota components are of the highest quality you’ll find. Toyota parts are covered by a 12-month, unlimited mileage warranty against defects in materials and/or workmanship — that’s how confident the Toyota team is in the quality of its OEM parts.
As we stated earlier, we use OEM parts exclusively in our Toyota service center when we work on Toyota cars regardless of the vehicles’ respective ages. Although that’s the case, other non-branded service centers often use aftermarket parts on and in the automobiles they service.
A lot of companies manufacture aftermarket components, which means the market is flooded with them. As readily available as aftermarket components might be, there’s no way to know if they’re well-made or durable. Sadly, most aftermarket parts don’t come with a warranty, which means you’ll have to pay out of pocket to replace them even if they fail the day after they’re installed.
To ensure you buy replacement car parts of the highest quality, purchase Toyota parts from St. Cloud Toyota. If you want the peace of mind that comes with knowing only OEM parts were used to repair your car, visit our Toyota service center whenever your vehicle needs a repair or some routine maintenance.
