That is the reason the buyer should always have the title to the property examined by a professional before the transfer of ownership. It is also why one should buy an owner's title insurance policy.
You should begin by contacting the attorney who represented you at your closing to determine if she/he can help you. They may be responsible for the error. It is difficult to say without a lot more detail. If notice of the dispute was on record there was a failure of your attorney to examine the title. If you acted with or without an attorney you may have grounds for a suit against the seller if they had notice of the dispute and didn't tell you.
You need to contact either the attorney who represented you at the closing or a new attorney who specializes in real estate law in your area.

You are responsible for the title because you were the one that traded the car. You say the vehicle was never titled. Go to the DMV with the vin number and see if the car was titled and you did receive. If it was then apply for a lost title. If it was never titled you will have to go back to the dealer where it was bought and get them to process the paperwork for the title.
