NTN Garage Newsflash - Pitter's Corner "The Cost of a Comeback"


 

1 December 2023 - Toronto - Corporate - News

 

We are pleased to introduce our new special column, “Pitter’s Corner”. With more than 30 years of industry experience, NTN Industry Expert, Automotive & HD Aftermarket, Robert Pitt, provides his tech tips, product information, and industry news to keep you informed. We hope that our readers will enjoy these timely updates on exciting aftermarket topics.

After many years of calling on Automotive Service Providers (ASP), the consistent requirement they ask of a manufacturer's product comes down to three main criteria. They will always need a competitive price, they want a quality product, and they want to ensure there won't be any comebacks. As you read through the attached Tech Tip, when a customer comes back with a complaint, the ASP has to rectify the issue at their cost which is a financial setback and ultimately, they can potentially lose the customer which damages their reputation. Avoiding comebacks is the #1 priority for all ASP's. A consistent flow of satisfied customers will help an ASP grow their business, which is the ultimate goal. NTN BCA quality can provide the Ultimate Bearing Experience to increase sales and customer loyalty.

 

What is the Real Cost of Comeback?

Here at BCA, we talk a lot of the benefits of using OE quality parts, and one of the primary benefits is to reduce comebacks. We are frequently asked what the cost of a comeback for a wheel hub installation is, so we put together this Cost of a Comeback scenario to help quantify the advantage of using premium, OE quality aftermarket parts.

 

Comeback Scenario
Positive Outcome

Cost of Comeback $200+

BCA Bearings by NTN is proud to offer a full-line of premium, OE quality parts to the automotive aftermarket!
