Buying a 2021 that has been imported from Canada?

[ws6guy]

Hi all, there's a dealer that has imported multiple Rams from Canada. They all appear to be around 1 to 1 1/2 years old with the original owner listed as commercial. Below is a link to one of them.

Do you all seen any drawbacks from purchasing on of these?

I have inlaws in that area that I'll visiting in a couple weeks and I figure I might need to stop in and have a look.

A buddy of mine has one of those and when his rear window started to leak, the warranty claim was denied because it was a Canadian import. He was still within the 3/36 warranty period.

@Idahoktm is right. The main drawback is that any warranty work will only be honored if you take it to a Canadian dealership.

Wow that's hard to believe! That would make it a hard pass. The search for lightly used one at a reasonable price continues

Dealership I bought mine from gets quite a few from Canada. I don’t know if they get them cheaper, or what. But when my salesman told me about the warranty issue, which I was surprised, I said hard pass. I didn’t know buying used Canadian vehicles was a thing until that point.
