No matter what type of repair you are working on, the expectation of the customer is the same—they want the vehicle repaired and restored to its original performance and state. And usually, they want it done as fast and as inexpensively as possible. That means thorough, complete and expedited repair processes, with original-equipment sourced parts that are instantly available. If every repair included a blank check, this expectation would be no problem, but anyone in the auto repair industry knows it takes a lot of time, skill, and money to meet those OE expectations.
There is, however, a more achievable, efficient and profitable solution to OE-quality repairs. Together, Duralast parts and ALLDATA OEM repair software offer two shop-forward solutions for maximum ROI that deliver every customer's dream of original equipment performance.
OE or Better Quality Parts
Duralast, known for providing OE or better quality, is the brand more technicians choose for parts in the automotive aftermarket*. The Duralast line covers over 20 part categories including brakes, chassis and vehicle electronics (ignition and engine management) to cooling, shocks and struts, tools and more. WIth an average 98 percent coverage of vehicles on the road today, these OE parts are readily available through one of the country’s largest supply chains and therefore reasonably priced, too, so shops can satisfy expectations on time, cost and quality while also keeping their profit margins up.
The Duralast name has to be earned. The brand standards of premium quality and reliability infuse every aspect of the engineering, design, manufacturing and testing processes. In some cases, where there are known OE design flaws, Duralast parts have actually innovated to improve over the OE, so every Duralast part is designed to be OE or better quality.
Your shop's reputation relies on consistency. Standards of quality and performance are ensured through category-specific rigorous real-life testing. Testing includes punishing life-cycle tests and various torture tests like corrosion and temperature extremes, ensuring OE or better quality, every part, every time.
Duralast built their brand to protect yours. From high quality standards enforced by testing to innovative design, Duralast parts will help you restore OE performance. You can confidently decrease installation time while increasing efficiency, customer satisfaction and profits. It’s no wonder that More Technicians Choose Duralast Parts*.
