Hello everyone, These questions may have been answered already, but there are so many responses here, I thought it would be a good idea to post the questions again. If I were to purchase a new or used car from the U.S. and bring it into Canada, will the warranty be honoured? I have heard so many answers to this question, such as it depends on the manufacturer or if the car is new or used. I can save many thousands of dollars on a few of the cars I am considering, so it would really be appreciated if I can get an answer to this. As well, I have heard that there are some cars that need just a cheap inspection, and some that need bumper work that can run into the thousands of dollars. Is this true? Thanks so much for your help... Michael

Replying to: lazarus (Apr 01, 2008 3:14 pm) You may want to check the APA.ca site - they have just updated their waranty information. I believe they did a good job at updating this info last week. Serge from www.carswithoutborders.com We are still alive and well. We have a new logo and we are still trying to shake up the government and get the border opened. Come visit |

Does anyone know of a good place in the Hamilton, Ontario area that will install daytime running lights? I assume that there's MANY US vehicles that don't have them as standard, and knowing that this feature is required to pass the federal inspection, I would assume many people have found a place that will do this. Is there a relay/module I can buy or is there simply a place that will do it for a reasonable cost. Any advice, tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Again, I am from the Hamilton, Ontario area.

Replying to: tedd2 (Apr 01, 2008 8:01 am) I think if there was a major problem like the Camry V6 6 speed trannies they would likely do something about it as a good will. Hopefully I won't need it. Someone will likely sue Honda soon and like Toyota a few years ago, they will begin to honour their warranties. I have saved over 20 K I will take the risk. Paul |

Does anyone know of any company that would sell insurance to non-resident (with no cancellation fee) and will this insurance be valid in Canada (if there is no cancellation fees it does not really matter if it is valid in Canada after I register it here)? The state I am looking to purchase the car in is Virginia and I am in Ontario. I cannot purchase insurance in Ontario for US car since I do not currently have the insurance here. Thanks.
