Hmm... I already filed 2 claims on Honda Plus while living in NJ via a
honda dealer in NJ.
One think i could think of is that the standard rate for a honda mechanic in
US is around 60-75 per hour.
If a US dealer is providing any type of service for Honda Plus, they will
want that same rate which
translate to 84-105 Cdn$$. That IS a VERY steep rate for Honda Plus Canada
to pay out.

Re: Question on Buying a Car in Canada - REPAIR - WATCH OUT
 

The one thing that really sucks about driving a Canadian car
in the US is to take it to your local Honda Dealer.

I took my beloved honda to the dealer for the usual 60 Km service
which should only cost about $ 200 max.

The dealer was confused (didn't read the odometer correctly)
and gave me the 90,000 MILES service which include the works
(timing belt, hoses, flushing fluids, .......)

Total cost? almost $ 1100.00. So just be a little extra careful
when you take it to the dealership for service

Re: Question on Buying a Car in Canada - REPAIR - WATCH OUT
 

Well I'm from canada and I can tell you one big advantage about buying a car
in canada (at least certain places in canada for example Newfoundland) cars
are a damn lot cheaper. However a con would be that in parts of canada where
salt is used on the roads in the winter, and if near salty water, the cars
are sometimes rusty.

Try Calif.....where the hourly rate is $80-85 per hour in US $
BTW...where is your Honda registered? If one were able to buy a car in
Canada, customs duty also must be paid, in addition to applicable sales
taxes.

Re: Question on Buying a Car in Canada

Re: Question on Buying a Car in Canada
 

Currently registered in WA. I didn't have to pay duty when moving down here
b/c I have dual citizenship and was living in Canada at the time.
Not sure how much custom $$ is but sales tax here in US is still lower than
in Canada
