we have something called The Canadian Motor Vehicle Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP) which is Canada’s answer to U.S. legislation that awards consumers compensation when their vehicles fall apart.
It is not comparable to lemon law as it doesn't aim to have owners sell back their vehicle but rather get some compensation for the cost of repair of faults...it is an arbitration more so than a court lawsuit.
A big if though:
BMW, Mitsubishi and Suzuki are not participating in CAMVAP, so owners of their vehicles must wrangle with dealers or elect to go to court.
Also, it is more elusive for buyers of used vehicles.
Good read though:
