subject: Advantages Of Used Car Parts [print this page] Car owners have a misconception that purchasing new auto parts from the manufacture dealers is best for their cars. They never think about buying used car parts. But in reality most of the car servicing companies recommends that service shops will fix cars using used original equipment manufacturer (OEM). This is because the used car parts are as genuine as the new ones.
Usually these used car parts are removed from write off vehicles and among them most of such cars are usually accident cars. However, these damaged ones are always destroyed leaving only the good-as-new ones. Sometimes, a car may need a repair for a particular given section.
