What to do if I purchased a new car a couple of weeks ago, signed documents from financial institution and put $2000 down but the lot called to say the paperwork is incorrect and it needs to be re-done?

Apparently my name was entered incorrectly. The $2000 did clear my bank. I purchased the car out of town. What happens if I don’t go back to re-do the paperwork? They are blowing up my phone saying the bank is refusing to do the loan if they don’t re-do the paperwork and get signatures. What happens to me and/or the car if I don’t return to re-do the paperwork?

If there are problems with respect to your purchase of the vehicle that you have written about and your $2,000 check failed to clear, I suggest that you immediately get the matter resolved as requested before things get worse for you where there could be a claim that you fraudulently purchased the vehicle by the dealership.
