For 6 months, I am being denied ability to register my car in my state of New Mexico due to the neglect and actions of my car dealer named " Kia Finance America '' and/or state agency named " XXXX XXXX  '' . I am reporting this complaint and report my property rights are being infringed. The car dealer as XXXX has bad business and deceptive practices. They continually fail to fulfill their obligations in providing the necessary documentations to allow my registration in New Mexico from Oklahoma. The issues preventing my registration is the need for the correction of the lien holder name and address on the title for Kia has changed that business information since XX/XX/XXXX. Also there is the need for a duplicate title request from them. Some how, The original title was lost due to the state of Oklahoma 's attempt to mailing the title to me. They mailed it to the wrong resident home address that I no longer lived at during that time they mailed it. I am not certain how all that occured, why, or remember for it was 2 years ago. I talked to Kia XXXX for duplicate title request several times and I have talked to supervisors and multiple actions being said resolution has been escalate to higher management to help register my car in my current state. They fail and mislead that they have processed the resolution every month for the last 6 months.

I have been floating on multiple 30 day temporary registration as a single paper and have had threats of car being towed with no plates for so long. I am XXXX on XXXX XXXX  XXXX and need my vehicle. I have done all I can in vehicle registration procedures and my title and registration is being held hostage this way. I already have had past notices of car being taken and towed and a law enforcement citation warning of having no plates on my car.
