▼Mediation/Arbitration Program
Occasionally a customer concern cannot be resolved through Mazd
a's Customer Satisfaction
Program. If after exhausting the procedures in this manual your concern is still not resolved,
you have another option.
Mazda Canada Inc. participates in an arbitration program admini stered by the Canadian
Motor Vehicle Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP). CAMVAP will advise you about how your
concern may be reviewed and resolved by an independent third pa rty through binding
arbitration.
Your complete satisfaction is t he goal of Mazda Canada Inc. and our dealers.
Mazda's participation in CAMVAP makes a valuable contribution to our achieving that goal.
There is no charge for using CAMVAP. CAMVAP results are fast, f air and final as the
award is binding on both you and Mazda Canada Inc.
▼ Canadian Motor Vehicle A
rbitration Plan (CAMVAP)
If a specific item of concern arises, where a solution cannot b e reached between an owner,
Mazda, and/or one of its dealers (that all parties cannot agree upon), the owner may wish to

CAMVAP uses the services of Provi ncial Administrators to assist consumers in scheduling
and preparing for their arbitration hearings. However, before y ou can proceed with
CAMVAP you must follow your Mazda dispute resolution process as outlined previously.
CAMVAP is fully implemented in a ll provinces and territories.
Consumers wishing to obtain further information about the Progr am should contact the
