Your RAM is a tough beast and can take nearly anything you throw at it–especially when you take good care of it with regular maintenance. And for that maintenance, your RAM dealer is the best choice.

Get Parts That Fit

What keeps your engine performing at its peak are parts that fit like a glove. When all your parts are made especially for your vehicle, you won’t experience premature wear and tear, failures, or unexpected damage.

Your dealer not only has the parts you need to keep your RAM in top working order, but they also have those parts on hand. When you visit an independent garage, you might have to wait days just to get the right part (unless you want to take your chances with a generic one).

Get Free Warranty Service

When something goes wrong that’s covered by the warranty, taking it to the dealership is the fastest way to get everything sorted out, with the least hassle for you.

Increase Your Resale Value

As much as you love your RAM, the day may come when you’re ready to trade it in or sell it. At that moment, you’ll get the most for your vehicle if you can show a reliable record of regular service. That servicing is even more impressive and convincing when it has all been done at the dealership. Plus, the dealership will have a record of everything, too.

Protect Your Warranty

Your vehicle is covered, but if something goes wrong at a servicing from an independent garage, it could void your warranty. If the mechanics put something in the wrong way or damage something else while they’re doing it, not only are you on the hook to get that fixed, but you might not be covered at all after that. If anything goes wrong at the dealership, though, they are the ones responsible for making it as good as new.

Benefit From Their Incentive to Serve

The dealership has a couple of strong incentives to do a good job. The first we’ve already mentioned–if they mess something up, they’re entirely on the hook and responsible to honor the warranty. That’s a strong incentive to do things right. But there’s another incentive to consider, too.

Your dealership has a pretty big reputation to uphold, and they don’t want to do anything to jeopardize that reputation. After all, they not only want your business for servicing: they also want you to think of them when you’re ready to buy your next vehicle. That’s not going to happen unless they offer you reliable, honest, fast service.

Get Skilled Service

A local garage mechanic may be very knowledgeable about engines in general, but that’s not the same thing as having specialized knowledge about your vehicle. The technicians at the dealership have been trained to work on RAM vehicles. They know these vehicles inside and out. They know things to look for that would never occur to a general mechanic. And they have the specialized diagnostic tools needed to do the job quickly.

When it’s time to get your RAM some service, visit Bill Snethkamp and make sure you’re getting the best.
