It seems like you were buying a car with some money down and with a promise to do some services for the balance. Have you kept your end of bargain? If you have fully performed what you were supposed to do, and the other side has not, you can sue the other side for breach. If this is the case, file your action in the Small Claims Court, pay the Sheriff or a registered process server to serve them, and prove your case in front of the judge. Be sure to consult your own attorney to protect your legal rights.
