Well I sent the title off to USAA, but after all this cluster they sent it back to me. So the title is free and clear in my name at the moment. Seeing how long it's taken them this long to call me back I think they realize they are in the wrong. I didn't think they could Repo a car with me having the title. I'm going to see if I can reach out to a lawyer and figure out where do I stand legally at this point. I really like the car so I'd rather keep it but they aren't going to corner me either. if anybody knows a lawyer can they ask them where I stand legally?
YES!!! This is the BEST option for you. Seek legal cousel because you DON'T want any sort of REPO or JUDGEMENT on your credit file due to either a dealer error or bank error or their parts.

They will have to push the loan through. The dealer will have to recon the decision. Again this has NOTHING to do with you.
Yes and no. There are a few steps that should have taken place in this process. 1st when USAA never received the blank check from the dealer in a 30 day period, USAA should have sent you notice that credit was never extended to you. USAA as lienholder SHOULD have been printed on your Bill of Sale from the dealer and the amount financed shown on the bill of sale that you stated you signed.
The dealer screwed up by presenting your title work to the local DMV without listing USAA as lienholder, however they should have had you sign a "SPOT DELIVERY' notice stating that the dealership doesn't extend credit nor do they lend money and if your contract with USAA for any reason is rejected, you must return the car.
What is not understandable is how a dealership can deliver a car and not press USAA for immediate payment when the 30 days elapsed. NO contract is valid after 30 days if its not executed and the dealership knows this. I mean the dealership should have been saying" OK, it's been 30 days where is the funding from USAA for this car.
In the end the dealership messed up but your intent was to enter into a contract to buy the car with funding from USAA. You must have "signed" a retail installment contract with USAA even if it wasn't executed by the dealer. You should have known the loan failed if after 30 or 45 days you weren't contacted by USAA about setting up monthly payments. The dealer should be able to show that you never actually paid for the car. Like other posters have stated, IMO I wouldn't wait for the dealer or the dealer's lawyer to come knocking at your door. I would contact the dealer, USAA or another lender and work something out. JMO.
