Good advice, Unfortunately I was scammed by dealer (a good friend) believe it was a good car. But It was an accident car after I bought and found out during servicing.

You are the best deliverer of information in this genre. I wish I'd watched your videos before being conned into buying a Mazda 2 manual that should be called the Mazda Kangaroo. Also, I paid $480 on Apple Play. Waste of money.

Thanks again for the useful wisdom you provide. I couldn't have made my car purchase without your help!

Great information thank you very helpful

Many of these tactics are actually called Criminal Fraud as defined by the Criminal Code of Canada. And the Service Departments are no better.

Great advice, it is too bad some car dealers are slightly slimier than all real estate agents. 😂

On a lease car if you buy the car are you supposed to pay for destinations fees again?. Even though you paid for delivery fees when you first leased the car.

What fees or scam should I avoid when I decide to purchase my car after the lease period is up?

What is mean by Car allocations cost? Kia is charging 4k above the msrp for kia telluride.

Thanks for video. Just wondering if you offer the Car Help Canada services in the US?

[Rob-o]

local dealership is trying to charge around $800 for a 'sealant' that they claim to put on all vehicles... they say it's a 'spray sealant applied to the outside and inside surfaces including seats to protect from stains and such'

Sounds fishy to me... Opinion?

5 Most Important Words: "Let me think about it". Don't be pressured. Go home and regroup. The car will still be there next weekend

Does all cars in Canada already comes with engine block heater? Or this will be installed by the dealership? TYIA :)

[nguyenhoanganh]

I wish I shouldhave seen this video before my purchase

[dennisbourne]

Why can the government track down on this dealerships scam?.

Hey can you do a car review on the Mazda 3 GT class? Love the vids!

[MrAngelzer]

Talk about the 0% finance dealers offer to get people into the door. And what this type of loan means for you as a consumer.

First of all, love all your videos - thanks for sharing them.

Secondly, can you please cover the following topics in future videos.

Process to import a Car from Canada to the US and its implications.

I am looking to buy a compact sedan ( Mazda 3 or Civic 2022) in Canada
but will be moving to the US next year. How long will I will stay
depends on visa status (hopefully 3+ years)
As such, should I buy a used car and sell it on departure?
Buy a new car ( my preference due to safety features in a new car) and take it to the US? Or sell it at departure and buy a similar one in the US?

Are there 1 year leases available for new cars?

Warranty coverage of car manufacturers across North America. For e.g I have heard Mazda extends Canadian 3 year warranty to US and Honda doesn't. Does it make a difference when moving from Canada to the US or is that not a big deal?

Active safety feature comparison across brands i.e Honda Sensing VS Toyota
Sense 2 vs Mazda i-ActiveSense vs Hyndai. Is there one better than the
other? Which brand car to choose if active safety features are a top
priority as a new driver.

Thanks in advance and keep up the great work!
