If a shop knows A/M parts are inferior to OEM why would they use them in repairs?

Bottom line is this....

OEM I make between 20-35% profit depending on manufacture.

A/M I make between 50-100% profit.

I spend roughly 1 million dollars on parts every year. It costs me no less than 150k a year to put OEM parts on your car.

That's a decision we easily make every day. Your safety means more to me then extra profit does. Make sure when you choose a repair facility that feels the same way.

P.S If they tell you we can't match it for the price insurance is willing to pay. It's because they are choosing profits over your safety. We do it daily on over 95% of our claims.

Have you ever received a safety recall notice in the mail or by email. When an OEM part has a safety recall manufacturer will send these out to notify you something needs to be done that could possibly be a safety hazard. If you haven't got it done when you check in for service work a lot of the times, they perform these while it's in for routine work. Regardless OEM has a process to inform you when a part could have failures that put you at risk. It's not often but it does happen.

So, let's say you had your car repaired at a Collision facility and they used CAPA certified parts your insurance company told you was just as good as OEM. What does that process look like when one has failed or is no longer certified?

Most collision shops and insurance companies don't even know what the process is. Why is that you ask? To be honest it's quite easy to miss. You used to have to sign up on CAPA website for monthly decertify reports which no one ever tells you about. Those would come by email, it will tell you year, manufacturer type, lot or batch number and what A/M part company it was. Rarely does it specify why it's been decertified. The only way I could know if it's a part, I have used is to pull the invoice from that car and check lot or batch number.

Let's ask a real question... Even if I get these reports what's the odds of me digging through every file checking to make sure the lot numbers matched to get your part swapped out. I'm going to tell you 100% that isn't happening. It's possible you could be riding around with a safety component ready to fail and you have no idea.

When choosing a collision repair facility ask them what type of parts they use. Are they going to put inferior parts on your car and try to sell them as the same quality? Or would they fight for you as a consumer to put OEM back on your car and make you whole again.

*As a special note... When a popular Collision podcast broadcasted how to get these decertified reports publicly Capa had it removed and no longer sends them by email...*

Progressive spent 3.49Billion dollars in advertisement in 2024.

Let's break down a few things that happened on Progressive claims last year alone.

Progressive took total loss fee's out of a customer's settlement without telling them. Because the standard fees they had been paying since I have been open were now above industry standard. They sent a tow truck driver without the correct payment to pick up a total loss 2 days in a row. The additional storage the vehicle accumulated was deducted from that settlement, also without telling the customer. Just sent them a check.

Now they locate parts from all over the country. If they find a door for 250 bucks in Texas that's all they want to pay. Even if you can't purchase that door. According to them "that's all they owe."

Spend two weeks handling the initial estimate and supplement. You run out of rental because they took way too long. Guess who's not going to pay for the additional days you need your rental car for.

OEM procedures on how your supposed to fix a vehicle... Progressive only sees them as suggestions but "not required". Progressive, the company that owes you money, has the right to determine how much they owe you. I have read it in the policy language for myself. That means they get to decide... not you or the repair professionals.

The fact of the matter is they don't mind spending 9 million dollars a day in advertisements. They would rather do that, then do right by you as a customer.

Be careful of who you choose your insurance with. I know money is tight and that seems appealing, but in the event of a loss it could cost you money out of pocket to get your car repaired.
