You have probably seen that your owner’s manual recommends a brake inspection at certain intervals. It turns out there are some important advantages to getting your Chevy dealership to look at your brakes regularly.

1. Safety and Savings

As a driver, the most important thing is your safety and the safety of your family. After that, the next most important thing is making good use of your money. When you regularly get the brakes serviced, your dealership will be able to catch any minor issues while they are still minor. The great benefit to that is first to your safety – you don’t have to worry about brake failure – and second to your wallet. If you catch issues early and get regular servicing, you can usually avoid any expensive fixes.


2. They Know Your Chevy

Why visit the dealership? The most important reason is because your dealer knows your Chevy inside and out. Modern cars are increasingly complex, and there are many systems that have to work together perfectly to deliver the kind of ride and performance you’ve come to expect. A general purpose mechanic may not have the familiarity with your make and model that’s necessary to give you the best service. At the dealership, the technicians are Chevy-trained and know exactly what to look for.


3. OEM Parts

OEM, or Original Manufacturer Parts, are the parts designed by Chevy to work perfectly with their vehicles. Your dealer will always use GM Genuine Parts or ACDelco OE parts: these are the true, original equipment for your Chevy. When it comes to something as important as braking power, that’s never the time to go with an inferior part that might not fit or respond exactly as expected.

OEM parts are meant to perform exactly as the original. This means they fit right (so no unexpected wear ​as they ​jostle around), and they perform right. You get the longest life out of OEM parts, which saves money in the long run, too. Even better, these parts come with a warranty, and the service provided by your dealership does as well.
