Aftermarket Motorcycle Parts' Foray
What's in aftermarket parts to argue about?
Different states view aftermarket parts in different
perspectives. Some states allow insurance companies to use
aftermarket parts without consumers consent. Others require
customer notification. Nonetheless, other states banned the use
of aftermarket parts to repair their vehicles. From these
scenarios, we can say that there is really no consensus as to
the beneficially or peril brought about by this kind of parts.
When you take your bike to a repair shop, you are sometimes
advised to use aftermarket parts instead of OEM parts. The first
thing that comes to our mind is to refuse the offer. This is
because we think of aftermarket motorcycle parts a bad choice.
However, this may not always be the case. Aftermarket parts used
may be equal, better, or worse in quality than the original
manufacturer parts.
A greater percentage of repair shops are using aftermarket parts
to damaged motorcycles. Those shops that are not using said
parts have quality as the main disagreement. However, their
greatest advantage is that they are less expensive. This is the
reason why insurance companies save money. Consumers in turn
save too. So when do you thing is the best time to
use
aftermarket parts?
Majority of insurance companies use aftermarket parts for
collision repairs. Thus, for consumers to be aware and
knowledgeable when to make an affirmative decision, here are
some steps to consider:
1. Check with their insurance company to be able to know what
policies are in place for the use of aftermarket parts.
2. Check with their state insurance commissioner to know the
state policies on the use of aftermarket parts.
3. Finally, decide. If it uses aftermarket parts at the
insurance company's discretion and the consumer has concerns
then they can try to ask that OEM parts are used. If they don
not grant the request, then shop around for an insurance company
that has a fair and desirable aftermarket crash parts policy.
From the aforementioned guidelines we can conclude that we have
to be secure first whether the insurance company that we are
dealing with uses aftermarket motorcycle parts. Then, we must be
sure with our choice whether to grab it or not.
