Honda Canada TSBs
So it seems that Honda Canada doesn't recognize most of the issues addressed in TSBs by Honda USA.
The dealer claims to me that the US and Canadian S200s are different cars, and therefore don't suffer the same problems. I explained that they're all made together in Japan and fitted with a couple different components based on final sale country, but she said, no they are basically completely different cars.
It seems to me that Honda Canada is abosolving itself of responsibility for known issues that are being addressed in the US.
The reason for my displeasure is due to 2 problems, fuel filler neck deformation and the rear axle spindle nut click. They won't cover either of those two repairs, and say since they're not Canadian TSBs, then too bad for me.
Anybody have any advice or different experiences?

Honda Canada gave me the same bs story on my CR-V for "pulling to the right and alignment issues". TSB issued in USA but not in Canada therefore not covered.
