Imports



We thought that it might be best to bring our second car down from Canada instead of buying a second car here in Florida.  We were planning on buying an SUV and selling that car anyway.  So we thought it might be good to have it here instead of selling it at a loss in Canada.  We looked into shipping it down and we found out that we needed to fill in forms from the Department of Transportation and the Environmental Protection Agency to say that the car met the US standards.  We needed to find out if it was already certified.  So we got our neighbour in New Hamburg to go into the garage and take a picture of the labels on the inside of the door to see if it was already certified.  The first picture was cut off on the side.  So we had to get him to go back and take another picture.  We needed to get a letter from the manufacturer saying it met the standards.  Barb phoned that they said that there was a recall on the car for the airbag in the passenger side of the front seat but it was no problem to send us a letter.  So we were getting ready to get it shipped down and then we called the shipping people and they said that they couldn't get it shipped if there were any recalls on it. So we might have to wait until next year to bring the car down.
