What to do if a car dealer has put a stop on us being able to renew our registration because we owe on our previous car?

I took the vehicle out of state to work. I had to come back for a court appearance. The motor blew while I had it in the other state. The car was not a great car and we cant renew our registration unless we pay the balance on the car. I am on Social Security disability and my wife works but her job is 15 miles away.

From what you have written with respect to the car that you purchased where the engine "blew" and cannot renew the registration on it due to a "stop" placed on it due to owing money on another car, you need to consult with an attorney that practices law in the area of contracts for further assistance.

He or she will need to carefully read all paper work with respect to the cars that you have written about to see if the car dealership was legally authorized to prevent you from renewing the registration on the auto that you have written about.
