So, what does this dealer have to say about the matter? If nothing
satisfactory, then your option is to sue him (up to $5K
in small claims court and to $25K in regular general district court if the amount is higher than $5K ).
In the meantime, you'll have to make arrangements with the finance company
to pay on the loan to avoid having a judgment rendered against you.
