Can an account re-surface from 2/2000? HELP!!!

I checked my TU report and my score had dropped dramatically from 658 to 587.....I checked my report and found that a company called Santander Consumer USA did an inquiry on my TU credit report on 12/05/09 and then placed a collection in the account area of my report for a car that I had attempted to purchase in 2/2000.  The problem is that I did purchase a vehicle from Drive Time during that period, but 2 weeks later I lost my job and I called Drive Time and asked if I could return the car since the paper work hadn't been processed entirely and they said yes. So I returned the vehicle. Now almost 10 years later, they are showing up on my reports as Santander Consumer USA stating that I owe them for this vehicle.  Another thing is that my house burned down in 11/2006 and I do not have paper work at all.  Only a fire report that shows my house was completely burned.

 

This is what is showing on my TU credit report:

Can anyone give me a direction to proceed in order to fight this?  Is this reaging?

You need to contact the OC & get a statement that this acct has been settled with them.  You will want some kind of documentation to cover your...end.
