Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

In Jan I purchased a used vehicle. I paid $1850 down and they asked me to write a check for $3150 that they would deposit later when I told them for a total of $5000 down. They deposited the check prior to teh date I told them and it bounced. I am waiting for my tax refund. I went in and paid $1000 and they gave me the check back and had me wrtie another for the remaining balance of $2150. I have already made my first payment to the bank that financed me. Today, without them depositing the 2nd check they call and tell me either bring the $2150 cash in today or they want the car back. I can not give them the full amount only a partial. Can they demand the car back even though I am already paying Wells Fargo (who financed me) for the car and making payments to them and have recieved my plates and registration?

Sound like you have a mess here because you failed to make the down payment. Just because you are making the financed payments does not stop the breach of contract you have for nt following the sales contract. You need to figure out to get the contract out of breach by paying the down payment you owe.
