Legal Question in Consumer Law in Oregon

auto loan contract

can a car dealership keep changing an auto loan contract after it has been signed? First they called us after we bought the car and said the bank wants more money down, so we gave more money and signed a new contract. Now, they are saying the bank won't agree to a term of 72 months and wants to change it to 60 months which will raise our monthly payment.
