Dealer agreed to settle, pay for 6 months of my loan,to maker me settle, and pay to dealer under the new loan.
I agreed, but dealer backed off from this agreement, and wants to take me to court.
What should I do, and what might happen.

Re: car lien dispute
First, before I answer, let me say that in ALL of these questions on this forum what counts is not the facts as you describe them here, but what will the judge believe after hearing both sides put on their evidence?
Second, based on the facts you describe, the worst that can happen (especially if the judge believes that it was the dealer's fault) is that you would have to pay what the dealer is asking. So what the dealer is asking is the worst that could happen.
Most likely the court would require you to pay the full balance of the loan with interest. But any costs or burden associated with the mix-up would be the dealer's fault and responsibility.
