This procedure is without cost to you and is designed to eliminate the need for lenghty and expensive legal proceedings. In the CAMVAP program, impartial third party arbitrators conduct hearings at mutually convenient times and places in an informal environment. These impartial arbitrators review the positions of the parties, make decisions and, when appropriate, render awards to resolve disputes. CAMVAP decisions are fast, fair, and final, the arbitrator's award is binding both to you and Ford of Canada. CAMVAP services are available in all territories and provinces, except Quebec. For more information, without charge or obligation, call your CAMVAP Provincial Administrator directly at 1 800Ć207Ć0685.
