If someone purchases a car from a delearship two years ago (read below?

Whenever I bought it a check engine light came on . Not even a week later I took it back to where I bought it from and the guy told me there was an electrical problem in the engine and it took them over a month to figure out what was wrong with it and two years later (today) I got a letter in the mail saying they are sueing me for the full price of the car that I didn’t even have for 3 days. They are sueing me for over 6 grand .

Additional information
*Purchased in state of Delaware
*No loan was taking out for car
*In house finacing
*Sold me a “lemon law” car
* I paid over a grand in cash for the down payment
* It was a used car
Why can they sue me for a car that I haven’t had in over 2 years ( I just paid off the car I do have and own it now ) and for a car they sold me with problems and they kept?
What are the options ?
*Asking for someone those are their exact words .

I'm confused why the dealership is suing you...
did you get in writing what the mechanic said was the issue? Cause they should have addressed that before they sold it to you.
I'm betting the check engine light was on before they sold and all they did was connect the diagnostic tool and just clear it without addressing the actual issue..
yep, time for an attorney I'm afraid
