Dealer doesn’t carry parts


Recommended Posts

Any dealer can order the parts. The Spark isn't a high profit car to sell, so not many dealers sell them. If they are not sold, then they don't come in for service and parts are not billed out. This leads to the GM computer that handles inventory for dealerships to not ship out parts for stock in dealerships.

I'm a Parts Manager at a GM dealership....

Is it me or do a lot of dealers not stock a lot of parts for these cars or there just hard to even get ?

As mentioned, dealers can order parts that aren't in stock. But if its something you can install, just head to an online shop and order it direct to your home. I've found it the easiest way to replace parts (I had the plastic piece fall out of my back liftgate/door, for example). If you get a dealer to do anything, they'll gladly charge you an $80 installation fee for 5 minutes of work on a part that might be $5-10.
