They needed some warranty work done but had to go back down to the US to get it done because Toyota Canada wouldn't recognize it. Not sure if the same thing holds true for Ashley's. Might not be a big deal for some if you travel down often and it's close to home but for them it was about a 10 hour drive.

You are somewhat correct with the warranty work. We both have US vehicles here and only the Jeep warranties aren't honored here now. However, both US dealerships told us they would be warrantied anywhere in North America. When we got to Canada, dealerships only honor factory warranties. That's changed in the last year. Jeep Canada doesn't honor factory warranties for American vehicles but Nissan Canada still does. It's weird.
To make it more weird Jeep told me if I was traveling through or hadn't registered my vehicle in Alberta yet they could honor the American warranty. I'm not sure why this is but I guess you have to ask yourself if you're going to have 15-20k done in warranty work done. That's how much more they quoted me to buy a new vehicle here in Canada, that matched the specs of my current vehicle. Of course that was before negotiating the sticker price. I paid 30k for my Jeep in the states brand new. They want 48k for it here.
