Car maintenance and repair | Performance GMC Cadillac Columbus near Lancaster, OHA collision repair is something that you never want to think about. If your car is damaged, you want to have it fixed ASAP, and that requires choosing someone to repair it for you. As your GMC and Cadillac dealer, we’d like to give you some of the reasons why we’re your best, and hopefully first, choice for any repairs in Ohio in the Lancaster, Carroll, and Columbus areas.

Why You Should Choose Your GMC Dealer for Your Collision Repair

Expert Knowledge

Modern cars use more advanced materials, including cast parts, magnesium, and ultra-high-strength steel. These materials require more skilled techniques and understanding to work with. A regular mechanic shop won’t have the specialized tools or equipment, as these items are not cost-effective for the shop to maintain. Without the necessary tools and equipment, any repair by regular mechanics will likely involve cutting corners.
Our GMC technicians, in contrast, are trained to understand how to repair and replace these materials. We have the most up-to-date tools and technology from GM, making repairing or replacing damaged parts quick and easy. We also have direct and speedy access to any components for repair we don’t already have in our well-stocked parts store.

Genuine Parts

Off-the-shelf parts have grown in popularity as regular mechanics use them in their repairs. These parts are cheaper and are marketed as compatible with the genuine parts that were used to build your car. Off-the-shelf parts are cheaper, which makes them a good deal for the bottom line of a regular mechanics repair shop.
These non-genuine parts, however, have problems that aren’t immediately apparent. Off-the-shelf parts are made for not only your car but a variety of different makes and models too. All cars are not the same, and this means the parts may not fit your car perfectly. In addition, off-the-shelf parts have a shorter lifespan than genuine parts, and they’re not guaranteed.

Time

Any repairs will take time, but you want to have your vehicle back in your driveway ASAP. As your dealer, we understand this. Our technicians are experts at understanding and repairing GMC and Cadillac vehicles, and this makes them faster and more precise in fixing any problems. A faster and more precise repair also lowers your labor costs.
A regular repair shop, as we’ve seen, repairs many different makes and models. This means they’re not as familiar with your vehicle, and this lack of familiarity translates to longer repair times. A lack of familiarity can lead to mistakes, and these potential mistakes can result in the need for further repairs to correct new problems.

There are numerous other reasons to choose your dealer for any repairs. If you’d like to know more or to book a repair, call us at Performance GMC Cadillac.
