Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“This vehicle qualifies for the buy back program but FCA is only offering a trade-in value plus 10% of that value. This truck is only 3 years old and they are only offering to purchase it for $11,000 as a buy back amount. This truck was purchased new for $51,000 and I don't not see how a $40,000 reduction for depreciation is acceptable or reasonable. I feel they are trying to rip me off for the second time. This is not acceptable. I could sell this truck on the open market for somewhere between $23,000 and $32,000 and I feel this is a major slap in the face.”
