Name on Deed & Liability

I had a quit claim deed notarized and delivered to an investor for a nuisance property that I was getting rid of.
He apparently did some work to it, rented it and left town. He does still have tenants occupying the property so I am assuming he is still in contact with them. I only found out about the existing tenants when the neighbor contacted me and told me about their pit bulls running free in the neighborhood. I checked the records and found the deed had never been recorded, so my name is still on the deed. Now I am concerned about being on the hook for the actions of the current tenant. Is this a valid concern ? If so, how do I clear myself from this responsibility knowing that there is an unrecorded deed somewhere ?
