Why We Strongly Recommend OEM Parts

OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by your vehicle’s manufacturer and are specifically designed, tested, and approved for your exact make and model. These parts:

• Fit properly
• Perform as intended
• Help maintain safety systems and structural integrity
• Preserve the value of your vehicle

In short, OEM parts help ensure your vehicle is repaired the right way—no shortcuts.

The Insurance Challenge (And How We Stand Up for You)

Sometimes insurance companies push for the use of aftermarket parts. These parts are made by third-party manufacturers and, while they may cost less, they’re not always built to the same standards as OEM parts.
Here’s the good news: we don’t just accept that without a fight.

With our Can Do mindset, we:
• Challenge insurance decisions when aftermarket parts are specified
• Request OEM price-matching from manufacturers whenever possible
• Advocate for the safest, highest-quality repair for your vehicle

Unfortunately, there are times when aftermarket prices are so low that OEM price matching simply isn’t available. When that happens, we’ll walk you through your options clearly and honestly—so you can make an informed decision.

On Your Side. Every Step of the Way.

Our goal has always been the same: to repair your vehicle safely, correctly, and with integrity. We treat every repair as if it were our own car or a family member’s vehicle in the shop.

That’s the Jim Yarger’s Body Shop difference:

• We do what it takes to fix it right the first time
• We bring a Can Do attitude to every challenge

If you ever have questions about parts, insurance decisions, or the repair process, just ask. We’re here to help—because at Jim Yarger’s Body Shop, “Can Do” isn’t just a slogan…it’s how we do business.
