Canadian Motor Vehicle Arbitration Plan
The Canadian Motor Vehicle Arbitration Plan is a program where disputes between consumers and vehicle manufacturers about alleged manufacturing defects or implementation of the manufacturers’ new vehicle warranty can be put before a neutral third party (arbitrator) for resolution. The Association of International Automobile Manufacturers of Canada provides two representatives, one staff member and one from a member company to sit on CAMVAP’s Board of Directors.
