I have a 1996 Lumina and a 1999 Monte - and they were also made in Canada. (Ontario - I believe). I wonder how far back you have to go to find one made in the good old USA.

late 80s i believe.
And being built in Canada is better than some other options.
But I believe they are just assembled in Ontario, many components still built elsewhere.

My 2 older brothers worked at the plant in St.Catharines ON Canada that did build the engines. A few hours away from Oshawa where the cars were assembled.

The 1995 L/S we have is made in Canada. Went to Auto Zone the other day to have them plug their scanner into it so we could read a code, and they don't have the Canadian plug !!

Are you sure it's not just the fact that your car is OBD1.5 and they probably tried to use an OBD2 scanner?

I know for a fact that all 95+ Montes were assembled in Canada. I don't know anything about where the 4th gens and older Montes were assembled.
