What is the name of your state? Texas

In Feb. I purchased a vehicle from a local dealer. I was told the vehicle had never been wrecked and that it was covered under manufacturer's warranty for another 4 months. Recently the motor began to make some serious noise so I took it to the Toyota dealership to have it looked at. They are telling me that the vehicle has been wrecked and that the warranty is void because of this. They are also telling me that all the electrical wiring needs to be replace to fix another problem the car is having. They are estimating repairs to cost around $6,000. Do I have any recourse here with the dealership I purchased the vehicle from?????

I will check through my paperwork this evening, but I know they told me that all the paperwork on the factory warranty was kept at the dealership.

The car is a 2000 Toyota Celica GT with @26,000 miles on it. I purchased the car used with @24,600.

Also before I purchased the car there was some electrical issues with fuses blowing and such. They told me they would take the car to Toyota since it was covered under warranty for repair before I completed the purchase. I have since found out that they did take the car up for repair but no repairs were completed by the shop since the warranty would not cover the items. So I am assuming they completed the repairs themselves and forget to mention that to me.

Is there somewhere that I can research this information?
