Description of the problem	I believe fiat chrysler automobiles (fca) is trying to make money off all customers that are opting to participate in the repurchase/buy back program. At no point in the 35 page nhtsa consent order is anything mentioned about fca only offering kelley blue book "trade-in" value. Not only is it trade-in value, they also are only classifying all vehicles as only "good condition". My truck is in "very good condition" according the briggs dodge dealership in topeka, ks that i took my truck to yesterday (10/7/15). Paragraph 35 of the consent order states original purchase price minus depreciation plus 10%. That by no means indicates trade-in value. Real market value is the price i should expect if i listed my truck on craigslist, classifieds, etc. This value according to kbb is referred to as private party value. I'm not expecting to make a profit, but i also don't think fca should be making a profit for mistreating its customers and the ways in which it has handled recalls in recent years. They only want to offer me less than $15,000 for my truck (that's including the 10%). However, retail for my truck is just over $19,000. Real market value/private party value is $17,000. I believe fca should pay me (and other ram owners like me) closer to $17,000 plus $1,700 (10%) for my truck. Please look into this continued mistreatment of fca customers. I look forward to hearing back from you. Thanks, [xxx] [xxx] [xxx]@yahoo. Com information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
