OEM Parts
These are parts that are made by the manufacturer of the automobile (for example, a part that Ford makes for a Ford car).
Aftermarket Parts
Aftermarket parts are parts that are made by a different company to be a fit for replacing OEM parts. Aftermarket parts are new parts that cost less.
Used Parts
Used parts can be OEM or Aftermarket parts that were previously used on another vehicle. These other vehicles commonly have damage on different parts of the vehicle, but the part in question may have no damage.
Remanufactured Parts
Remanufactured parts are parts that were previously used or damaged and were repaired. These can be OEM or Aftermarket parts, and are typically low cost. Many parts may not be able to be, or may not be worth, remanufacturing.
Yes. Manufacturers normally continue to make parts for their vehicles for years after their after their release.
Owners of older vehicles may encounter struggles in finding OEM parts.

No. OEM parts can be sourced from various places. While they are manufactured by the company, they may be purchased from part stores, warehouses, and other sources.
Typically OEM parts cost more than using an aftermarket, used, or remanufactured part.
This is a great question. Ideally yes, as that is the goal of the company making the part.
However, that is not always the case. Some aftermarket parts may present issues with fit, durability, or other quality concerns. While aftermarket parts are the financially logical decision in many cases, be aware that the quality may be lower than an OEM part.
