Dodge cars are presently being sold under the DaimlerChrysler banner. Dodge is as well known for its pickups and medium to heavy trucks, SUVs and vans as its cars.
Dodge OEM factory parts are readily available all over the country for all their models. These, no doubt, are manufactured by sub-contractors for Dodge, but meet Dodge’s exacting standards. These standards were set by the two founding brothers as far back as 1900 and the legacy continues.
Parts are also available for Dodge vehicles made by other manufacturers.
