Check your VIN. If it starts with 2, it was made in Canada. I had no troubles whatsoever when I had my civic. My friends vic was also made in canada, same deal for him.

^^^Hahaha Some VW and Audi models are made in Mexico too.

My 01 sedan was made in Canada...transmission (a/t) burnt out at 45K miles and by the way it feels the new one is on its way to die by 90K.
My driving style is comparable to my grandma so its not that lol.

Ironically, the transmission is about the only part made in JAPAN.
Most of the car's parts are made in Mexico.
Its just assembled in Canada.
