GM Parts Advantage:  Don’t take chances. Insist on genuine GM parts, designed & tested for the best performance possible in your GM vehicle.


Why Buy Genuine GM Parts? The GM Parts Advantage: Genuine Commitment

GM parts are the highest-quality products available for your GM car. What’s more, they’re the only products specifically designed, made & tested to keep your GM car running at peak performance & appearance - after all, they’re the ones it was born with. Whether you’re restoring an old favorite or personalizing your newest baby, count on GM parts to provide genuine dependability. Your GM Goodwrench dealer carries a full line of genuine GM products, each one designed & manufactured to exacting standards for your specific GM vehicle.


GM Collision Parts:  Don't Get Stuck with Cheap Imitations.

Make sure you’re not involved in an accident after the accident - insist on genuine GM Collision Parts. They’re the same parts your car was born with, so you know you’re getting genuine GM quality, reliability and durability.
Parts Testing Report:  Genuine GM Collision Parts vs. The Competition - Imitation Parts
If you don’t insist on GM Collision Parts, you could get stuck with cheap imitations. GM recently released a Parts Testing Report comparing GM-produced replacement parts to aftermarket.
In Summary, the aftermarket parts tested didn't meet the same requirements as the GM produced - OEM products. The aftermarket parts tested were of inferior quality & would be deemed unacceptable to provide to GM production & service customers.
Here’s the Bottom Line: GM’s analysis shows the aftermarket parts tested, & their standards, don't meet the standards required for GM - produced OEM parts.
In the Event of a Collision the only way to get genuine GM Parts is to ask for them. Ask your insurance & collision repair facility rep if your car will be repaired with genuine GM Parts. If they say “yes,” you’re getting the value, safety, endurance & peace-of-mind you expect.

If they say imitation parts might be used, then

you have the right to refuse them. It’s your choice.

 

Counterfeit Parts:  If It Sounds Too Good To Be True, It Probably Is.

What are counterfeit parts?  When it comes to auto parts, that old saying is definitely the case. Fake auto parts have become a serious problem in recent years. So beware: if somebody tries to sell you what appear to be genuine GM parts at deep discount prices, there’s a good chance the parts are imitations.
Why should I care?  The real kicker is that, more often than not, counterfeit parts are of inferior quality and performance. Counterfeit parts may be cheaper up-front, but they could cost you a lot more in the long run.
For starters, counterfeit parts typically don't last as long as genuine parts. Unlike genuine GM parts, they're typically not built according to your GM car's specs, leading to possible mechanical problems & system breakdowns.  Counterfeits can cause major safety problems for you & your family. They're often made using substandard materials that don't hold up or perform like genuine GM parts.
