Yes, good concise info Ian. It's shameful to me that some manufacturers don't provide either the full US or the full Canadian warranty to consumers of their cars regardless of point of purchase. Why have Nafta?

True, but better than ones flatly denying warranty.

I like Chrysler's position on this...

Quote:
U.S. cars brought into Canada new will not be covered on either side of the border.

Yeah, sounds no different than Honda, Mazda. Some manufacturers are trying to control consumer behavior with unfair practices. What can be done about it? Probably nothing.

But I still prefer to live here

"Hey, I'm not a lumberjack, or a fur trader....
I don't live in an igloo or eat blubber, or own a dogsled....
and I don't know Jimmy, Sally or Suzy from Canada,
although I'm certain they're really really nice.

I have a Prime Minister, not a president.
I speak English and French, not American.
And I pronounce it 'about', not 'a boot'.

I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack.
I believe in peace keeping, not policing,
diversity, not assimilation,
and that the beaver is a truly proud and noble animal.
A toque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch,
and it is pronounced 'zed' not 'zee', 'zed' !!!!

Canada is the second largest landmass!
The first nation of hockey!
and the best part of North America"


My name is GEE35X!!
And I am Canadian!!!
