Hogwash. There is no assurance whatsoever that
all products marketed by an OE manufacturer meet the same standards as their OE parts. In fact, some manufacturers sell parts on the aftermarket that have been
rejected by the vehicle manufacturer. In some cases, they actually grind the "brand name" off the part.
