If I was recorded on the phone telling the buyer of my car that I would refund her money but nothing was putin writing, am I legally bound by that?

I am being brought to small claims court regarding a car that I sold on craigslist they are suing me claiming that it has a blown head gasket. I made them sign a bill of sale that we both signed that stated it was an “as-is sale”. I did make a mistake after I had sold it I told her to return the car and I would give her money back that night she has led me on about it so I decided not to refund her. She recorded me saying I would refund her but there was no written agreement. Is that still legally binding or am I in the clear?
