Well it sounds like your friend doesn't understand her place in the problem. If she had originally continued to make payments this wouldn't have happened. I'd say if she was having money problems she should have contacted your father to work out a new payment system, but because she contacted you that she wanted to buy another car it seems she had the money to pay for the car your father sold her. ( I don't know if you relayed that message to your father that she wanted to know how much she still owed or not ). Your father could have handled the matter a bit better in my opinion instead of just going to her house and taking the car back without talking to her about continuing the payments.

Then again the core of this problem is your friend. She started the chain of events. Her mother has no right to be sending you and your family threatening messages, and she can and will be arrested for doing those things.

On a side note: Legally your father can take the car back from them because its still his because your friend hadn't finished paying it off. So if that ever comes up don't worry about it.

If you want to talk to your friend and try to fix things ( in my opinion you shouldn't ) then call her and try to talk to her calmly. If things get to heated just bluntly tell her its her fault for not paying off the debt she owed for the car and if she or anyone acting on her or her mothers behalf call you again and/or threaten you again you'll call the police for harassment.

This isn't your fault so don't worry.
