We have very little to go on from the OP other than the vague description of what the car fax said. It could very well be that the dealer didn't know anymore then what they told the buyer at that time and were not out to screw anybody. All we ever hear is one side of the story on these things and the masses always take the buyer's story as the gospel truth and condemn the dealer with little or no background facts. It is not reasonable to say that every car dealer is crooked. There are certainly more than some other businesses but there are also some very good and honest dealers.

And that is why small claims court has a mediator on offer before you end up in front of the Judge. They listen to both sides and make sure that everything from each side is on the table. They are good at cutting past the emotions and explaining the facts to each side.
Are you wasting the dealers time? Maybe but if they pulled off a deal that left a client this unhappy, they have some learning to do.
Is it a nuisance claim? Not for us to decide.
