Why Genuine Ford Collision Parts Are The Right Choice
If you’ve been involved in an accident and need repairs to the body of your vehicle, choosing the right parts is important to the long-term performance of your vehicle and to your peace of mind.
Original equipment standards
Ford Motor Company vehicles use more advanced high-strength steels, exotic metals and composite materials than ever before. They also include highly advanced crash avoidance and safety system technologies. These systems should be repaired using parts that can match the form, function, performance and safety level Ford engineers originally specified.
Genuine Ford Original Equipment (OE) collision replacement parts, sometimes referred to as (OEM) parts on the collision estimate, are designed and produced to the same specifications and tolerances as the parts on the vehicle when it was manufactured. They meet stringent requirements for fit, finish, structural integrity, corrosion protection and dent resistance. They are the only parts proven during the vehicle development process to deliver the intended level of protection as a whole system.
Vehicle resale value
Using Genuine Ford OE Collision Parts for repairs helps keep your vehicle looking like new, which can help maintain its value. Using aftermarket, salvaged or reconditioned parts may decrease your resale value because of potential poor quality, fit, finish and appearance. If you are leasing your vehicle, be sure to check your lease agreement, since using Genuine Ford OE Collision Parts may be a requirement.
