1. They Know Your Jeep
The simplest and most important reason to visit the dealership is that your dealer knows your Jeep inside and out. As cars become more sophisticated, they become much more complex. There are all kinds of systems that have to work together within your Jeep, and some of them are unique to a Jeep. A general mechanic may not have the familiarity with your make and model to provide the safest and most efficient service.
Not only that, but someone who knows Jeeps inside and out and works with them every day is going to know what to look for in a service. Every vehicle on the road has unique points of wear and tear. The key is knowing exactly what to look for to stop problems before they even happen. The Jeep trained technicians at your dealership know exactly what to look for and how to prevent problems from developing.
2. They Only Use OEM Parts
OEM, or Original Manufacturer Parts, are designed from the ground up to fit your Jeep. Jeep uses MOPAR parts, which are known for their high quality. When it comes to something as important to your safety as brakes, you don’t want to take a risk with an inferior part. Genuine parts fit better, so there’s no unexpected wear and tear as they jostle around, and they perform to exactly the specifications you expect.
They also come with a warranty, as does the service provided by your dealership. If you use a cheaper aftermarket part designed to fit a variety of vehicles, and that part should fail, not only are you not covered for that part, but if it does damage to other parts of the Jeep – something that would normally be covered by your warranty – you’re out of luck.
3. They Understand Jeep Electrics
One of the tricky things with brakes in the modern era is the way the brake systems themselves have to work with delicate electrical systems. The ABS system is an older technology that most vehicles have, but these days, you’re also talking about things like front pedestrian detection with emergency braking or adaptive cruise control. These sensitive electronics systems have to harmonize with the brakes, which means you want some assurance that everyone working on your wheels and everything about them knows how these systems work and how to ensure that they’re still working after a service.
