Auto sector bleeds from bite of high fuel
U.S. vehicle sales plunged last month to their lowest level since 1991 as soaring gas prices mauled the pickup truck and sport utility vehicle markets and even bit into crossovers, one segment that has been a bright spot for the embattled Detroit Three.
We have posted the details for you as well. Maybe this will loosen up some of the American Dealers to start selling to Canadians.

I just finished importing a 2008 S60 with little issue.
Here’s my experience.

It looks like Volvo Canada is making it easy for Canadians to buy a Car in the U.S. A while back when we reviewed the procedure with the Customer Service folks they were reluctant to put anything in writing to us. Now they have an online “request letter of Admissibility” along with other questions and answers.
A: You will require the following four items from Volvo before filling out the required forms to obtain a Certificate of Compliance from the Canadian Government’s Registrar of Imported Vehicles:
- Recall clearance letter to be issued by Volvo Cars of North America
- A Letter of Admissibility to be issued by Volvo Cars of Canada Corp.
- Proof of safety and mechanical inspection and required modifications from an authorized Volvo retailer in Canada
- A Safety Inspection Compliance Letter to be issued by Volvo Cars of Canada Corp.
Check it out.
Has anyone followed these procedures? Do they work? Please let us know.
It appears that TC has put up another new list. Again they appear to be back dating the list. It wasn’t there Thursday 28th, when we checked and we are sure we didn’t see a new one yesterday.
So is this intended to come out on the same day as the Lawsuit? We have noted some of the changes below, but most significantly check out what they took out on Volvo!
Volvo Canada has not provided information to TC on the admissibility of vehicles that are imported after January 1, 2008. Effective January 1st, 2008, if you wish to import a U.S. compliant Volvo vehicle into Canada, you will have to contact Volvo Cars of Canada at 1-800-663-8255 to determine if the vehicle is admissible for importation, and to request the letter of admissibility required at the time of importation. section.
- They took this out!
- Other minor changes were as follows:
- Mitshubishi, 2008 Porshe 911 and what appears to be minor cosmetic changes. (see below)

It is not to late to change Mr. Cannon, you can just “jump those Bad Boys” at the RIV and TC now. Or beware of Mr. Green’s warning!!!!
