Wow, you're right. The IRS is simply paying this credit to the dealers. Sorry, I should have looked that up.
There isn't a tax form to add this in in the TurboTax system. The 8936 will just reject your credit if your AGI was too high in 2024 (and in 2023 - you can use the prior year's AGI). If that is the case then you need to send in the $4000 as a payment to the IRS in addition to your taxes.
TurboTax has a lot of options to add additional tax to your payment but none of them are repaying this credit. I suggest making a separate payment to the IRS here. When it asks for the reason just enter 'Balance Due'.
You can also wait for the letter from the IRS to arrive. That will have a payment coupon associated with it.
