Eating out, poor hand hygiene and erratic weather may be among causes, say medics
On UAE’s roads it is vital to maintain vehicles to the highest standards and in case of repairs or modifications, to rely on original spare parts and accessories.
Original spare parts and accessories have been designed, manufactured, tested and certified to the highest quality standards of the vehicle brand (Original Equipment Manufacturer – OEM), meaning production and inspection standards, materials, dimensions, shapes and functions.
Unauthorized parts and accessories may closely resemble the originals, but those will not have the same quality. This quality is not visible to the naked eye and just because it “looks the same”, it doesn’t mean that it matches the performance of original parts and accessories.
Advantages of original / certified spare parts and accessories:
