Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California

I am being sued in small claims court in 2 days. In a nutshell, I was rear-ended in auto accident almost 4 years ago and was not at fault. Driver's insurance paid for medical, car and lawyer through a small liability settlement. Case over and done with! Several weeks ago I received a threatening phone call on my cell-guy's first sentence...we are pursuing legal action against you.... pay us $ now-I thought it was a scam and got his info-rental car debt.Called him back several days later and questioned-why have I never received bill? They said office was chaotic etc, but I had signed a contract and owed them $. I said Driver's insurance paid for everything and sugested we call ins. We then conference called insurance that had paid out my claim and they said "too late" to rental guys-"statute for claims is 3 years." After call ended I told them that they had come to the table too late for payment-manager became enraged-F-you bi---! Pay us our f-ing money. I hung up and tried to make a complaint against them to the corporate office-but was transferred to same guys-they were the corporate office! This is how they got my home phone number and address. They called me at home, threatening again. I sent cease and desist letter. 5 days later they sued me! Once again I am going to court in 2 days! Any advice appreciated!
