What’s the Deal with MOPAR Accessories?

When you take home a new or pre-owned vehicle from Kearny Mesa Chrysler Dodge Jeep® RAM, you can trust that you’re getting the highest quality equipment and service in the San Diego, CA area. And when it’s time to bring your Chrysler car in for regular maintenance or accessory upgrades, our dealership is the best place to do it.

If you’re interested in upgrading aspects of your vehicle, here’s why our MOPAR accessories are the way to go.

What Does MOPAR Mean?

Before you can understand why they are the best parts for your car, you need to know what MOPAR means. The term “MOPAR” is an abbreviation for “motor parts,” and it’s what Chrysler Corporation calls its parts, service, and customer care sectors.

Essentially, MOPAR signifies that a product is the OEM—or original equipment manufacturer—version, which means it was designed by the vehicle’s manufacturers to work specifically for your car. In contrast, aftermarket products are designed by a third party and not by the automaker itself.

What’s the Difference Between Parts and Accessories?

It can be easy to mix up what constitutes a MOPAR part versus an accessory, but there is a slight difference. While a “part” is considered a piece of essential equipment for your car to function properly and safely, an optional piece of equipment you can add on to your vehicle is categorized as an “accessory.”

Accessories can be added to both the interior and exterior of the car. Some examples of MOPAR accessories are spoilers, roof racks, splash guards, floor mats, cargo nets, and more.
