I assume they got the car back. Now if the car was damaged due to their negligence then they should repair that damage. As to the original repair bill there should be some negotiations but you do owe them for that work. However, the owe you because they were negligent in letting the car get stolen.

You need to talk to an attorney to see how to resolve this matter.
