NHTSA Complaint #10939925 — 2014 JEEP COMPASS

I OWNED A 2014 JEEP COMPASS UNTIL DECEMBER 2016. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM CHRYSLER OF ISSUES WITH AIRBAGS AND SEATBELTS MAKING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO OPERATE ACCORDING TO ME AND THE AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE COMPANY. AFTER CONVERSATIONS WITH THE DEALERSHIP CLOSES TO MY HOME, I WAS TOLD PARTS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM WERE NOT AVAILABLE AND THE DATE FOR THE PARTS AVAILABILITY WERE UNDETERMINED. I WAS LEFT WITH THE CHOICE OF DRIVING A RENTAL CAR AND CONTINUE TO PAY FOR THAT VEHICLE FOR UNDETERMINED AMOUNT OF TIME. I DECIDED TO TRY AND TRADE THE VEHICLE. I WENT TO 3 DEALERSHIPS TO GET ESTIMATES ON TRADING, WITH ONE BEING THE SAME DEALERSHIP WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED WITH FINAL RESULTS OF BEING TOLD THAT THE CAR WAS WORTH $5000 LESS THAN WHAT WAS OWED ON IT AND I COULD NOT GET FINANCING FOR ANOTHER, NOT A RECENT MODEL, VEHICLE AND THE BALANCE OF THE JEEP COMPASS. SO I VOLUNTARILY SURRENDERED IT BACK TO THE FINANCING COMPANY LEAVING A BAD FINANCE MARK ON MY CREDIT. THE CAR IS TO BE SOLD AT AN AUCTION FOR WHAT EVER PRICE CAN BE OBTAINED LEAVING ME WITH THE BALANCE TO PAY. MY QUESTIONS ARE, CAN CHRYSLER, AUTOMOBILE MANUFACTURER, BE HELD RESPONSIBLE TO PAY THE BALANCE, AND IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO TO RECOOP THE DAMAGE THIS HAS CAUSED MY CREDIT RATING? *TR
