I traded my vehicle to a dealership on 2/15/21 and I received a call from them yesterday 2/25/21 asking me if I could put more money down or get a co-signer. What happens if they call me today saying they could get financing since it is no longer within the 10 days?
Since they called you on 2.25.21 asking for more money, you will have a hard time proving they did not "cancel" within 10 days since 2.25 was day 10.

I am not familiar of any court website that says do not reply if you cannot pay. If you don't reply there will be a default judgment against you and can attach to any property (real or personal) you may have now and in the future.
As I understand, I needn't serve the defendant as they are in default.
You must absolutely serve the defendant with anything you file with the court. If you don't your filing is defective and may not be considered by the judge.
You can file bankruptcy and eliminate the debt if you qualify. Call and attorney that practices bankruptcy and consumer protection law for a consultation.
