The Advantage of GM Genuine Parts vs. Non-OE Parts
| GM GENUINE PARTS | NON-OE PARTS |
|---|---|
| Designed to meet GM's safety requirements | May not have crumple zones or meet manufacturer's stringent safety requirements |
| Precise fit | May leave unsightly gaps between body panels |
| Quicker installation | May require workarounds and more time to get parts to fit |
| Primed and ready for paint | May not be primed, which might affect paint adhesion and overall finish quality |
| Verified build quality | No guarantee of material or design quality |
| Proven structural integrity | Unknown integrity |
Requesting the Right Parts is Your Right
Discuss GM OE Parts With Your Insurer
GM Original Equipment is the closest to factory-installed parts for your GM vehicle. To help promote the proper, safe repair of GM vehicles, it's important to request OE parts when taking your vehicle in for collision repair.
Check Your Policy To Be Sure You're Covered
Check your policy to make sure you are covered for OE parts in all instances. Oftentimes, you may be covered for "parts of the same kind and quality." Some policies may specify OE parts must be used and other policies may only cover non-OE parts.

How long do repairs take?
Vehicle collision repairs vary depending on the complexity of repairs and availability of parts, with rare or discontinued models often taking longer to repair as we have to acquire the correct components.

Does Burt Watson Chevrolet work with my insurance?
Burt Watson Chevrolet is proud to work with nearly all insurance providers to resolve your vehicle repair needs. For some insurance providers, we are the preferred repair facility due to our experienced collision repair technicians and ability to acquire quality parts directly from the manufacturer.
What do I drive while my vehicle's being repaired?
If you require alternate transportation while your vehicle is being repaired, our team can help coordinate a rental car. Some insurance companies and lease agreements provide rental vehicle coverage, helping you get back on the road in the meantime.
What happens if additional damage is found?
Similar to home restorations, initial inspections often miss damage that could be lurking underneath, and our team will take the time to document additional issues we find along the way.
