Replying to: altaboy (Nov 20, 2007 12:06 pm) If you've failed to cross once due to this technicality, try and try again. Many posters here including myself went through customs without any physical inspection of the vehicle. Same thing goes for the CT inspection, although you may be dinged with re-inspection fees on that end if you need to try and try again. Regardless, the laws of averages are on your side and the costs are likely to be lower than the loss you will incur to return it. Best of luck. netdog

Replying to: wrajinder (Nov 20, 2007 1:21 pm) I was interpreting things the same way as you but now know how to read the list. Every notes section has the words "See explanation section". These 3 words apply to all cars listed in the admissible column. When you refer to the explanation section it tells you that you need a 114 compliance letter. This is how it is working... Sucks but true. They need to take all toyotas and list them as inadmissible because they effectively are... Cheers

Replying to: showmeanimport (Nov 20, 2007 3:01 pm) Just to go into more detail. If you go and check specs for all vehilces shown as admissible without immobilizer as standard .They carry see notes section. as Highlander base model do. You have to see " safety" column in all vehilce specifications. |

As per Post#2281 - check out the CBC tonight! Harvard Gould is on at 5:30 est. with the business news… and the National is of course at 10:00. Robert Lamb is going to be interviewed (who has been in stories featured in the Montreal Gazette and The Globe and Mail). Mr. Lamb also has sent open letters to PM Harper and Finance Minister Flaherty on this issue. I guess we'll see if the CBC is a friend of the enterprising little guy or the overly anal bureaucratic establishment. |
