Hi guys,
I thought I would update you all on my recent experience in getting the documents ready to import my Acura MDX 2009 to USA. I am planning to go there on a TN visa and my car is paid off.
1. Ensure car is registered with Acura Canada- if not go to any dealer and ask them to input the car details with your ownership. This is quicker than calling Acura and doing it over the phone.
2. After registering with Acura Canada- call them and ask them for a recall clearance letter. They will e-mail it to you within a week
3. Call Acura USA and they will start a case file and ask you to send your DL and ownership.
4. Acura USA will send you the letter of compliance. In my 2009 Acura MDX letter, it said the TPMS and parts marking/theft prevention system had to be checked by a local dealer. The letter stated to go and see them and ask for a Repair Order to have these inspected. The completion of inspection report and the letter would make it a full compliance.
5. Went to my local Acura dealer- got the Repair order and they inspected the TPMS and theft prevention system stated all working fine in the Repair Order. No charge which was a bonus especially from the dealership.
I believe I now have a full compliance letter to be submitted at the border.
Thanks
