When your Nissan needs a service or repair, you have the choice between a dealer service or taking your car to a regular mechanic. As your Nissan dealership, we want to give you some of the most important reasons why choosing us is the best option for you, your vehicle, and your pocketbook.
From Your Nissan Dealership: 4 Reasons Why Dealer Service Is the Best Choice
Specialized Knowledge
Our technicians are trained mechanics who complete advanced training at a Nissan factory. During their time there, they learn everything there is to know about all the components and systems in the Nissan vehicle range. Once their training is complete, they further hone their skills in daily servicing and repairing Nissan vehicles. The extensive knowledge and experience enable them to work faster and more precisely than any non-Nissan-trained mechanic.
In contrast, the mechanics at a corner garage or repair shop don’t have this specialized training. They work on a variety of different makes and models, but their lack of familiarity with Nissan vehicles can mean repairs take longer and potential issues can be overlooked through a lack of experience.
Up-to-Date Technology
As a dealer, our service department has the most up-to-date tools and equipment, much of it supplied by Nissan. In addition, the software that powers this equipment is calibrated for Nissan vehicles. This ensures that any issues can be easily diagnosed and repaired.
A regular repair shop won’t have this level of technology. They will use more generic systems and equipment, which could result in delays due to misdiagnosis, flawed repairs, and other issues.
OEM Parts
OEM stands for Original Equipment Manufacturer. These parts are identical to the original components that were used to build your car. Since they’re manufactured from the same high-quality materials and meet the same standards, they are the best and safest parts to use when we service your vehicle.
Most repair shops will use aftermarket parts. These parts look like the OEM versions, but they’re made from lower-quality materials and aren’t specifically tested on your Nissan model. They can potentially cause damage to other components in your vehicle, as they may not fit correctly or work efficiently with other original components.
Warranties
The OEM parts we use all carry warranties, and the labor performed by our technicians is also covered by warranty. In the unlikely event of any issue with parts or labor covered by warranty, any necessary repair work will be performed by any Nissan dealer at no charge.
The aftermarket parts used in regular repair shops don’t have warranties, so if a part fails, you must buy a replacement. Repair shops may provide a labor warranty, but you would need to return to them if a repair is necessary.
