I'm using a Siren character. I'm in the mission "A Dam Fine Rescue" and my objective is to get bandit car parts. I destroyed one of the cars and the part flew off the map. I restarted the game but the only way to progress is to get the part, but I will be automatically killed if I try to get out of the map.

I don't really see much options on slowing enemies down, so I'll add tips on surviving close quarters combat, and/or escaping it when playing as a Sniper (assuming you're focusing on the 'Sniping' skill tree).
See the 'Status Effects - Stunning' article at the Borderlands wiki (most of it is written for Borderlands 1, but a lot still applies to Borderlands 2). It dicusses how enemies are stunned, which should slow them down.
Try focusing on increasing the At 0ne with the Gun skill in the Sniping skill tree:
It greatly improves accuracy of sniper rifles when aiming from the hip. It also increases the reload speed and magazine size of sniper rifles.
This well help you to better shoot your sniper rifle without using the scope - useful as a lot of the skills in the 'Sniping' skill tree improve the efficiency of sniper rifles specifically. This will make it easier to fight or whittle down enemies while escaping close quarters combat.
Hyperion 'Singularity' grenades pulls in nearby enemies before exploding, potentially slowing them down, while dealing heavy damage. When overwhelmed, throw a grenade, while going for the nearest cover.
Torgue/Maliwan 'Nova' shields will fire elemental blasts once depleted. They could help damage or whittle down nearby enemies in close-quarters combat, making it easier to fight or escape.
Use a Relic that increases Decepti0n's cool down rate ('Proficiency' relics) or helps improve 'Fight For Your Life' time ('Tenacity' relics or Sheriff's/Deputy's badge). You will either be more likely to escape with Decepti0n when you need to use it, or have more time to get a second wind, when crippled.
Get a 'Professional' class mod. It increases reload speed and shield capacity, making you take more damage, and making it easier to fight back without using the sniper scope or a sniper rifle. It will still help if you're firing the sniper rifle unscoped and you have At 0ne with the Gun skill points. Another option is to equip a 'Spy' class mod (faster Decepti0n cooldown rate) or a 'Survivor' class mod (increase max health and health regeneration).
When playing co-op, let you non-sniper allies be at the front lines, and just snipe enemies from a safe distance.
Be wary of places where enemies might spawn. Also, have a strong backup non-sniper gun ready, or use your Sniper rifle unscoped if you have At 0ne with the Gun skill points, when fighting or escaping close quarters combat.
In general, your build in early game does not matter much. Just make sure you phaselock those mutants as often as you can. If you are still uncomfortable with your build, try shifting into Harmony to heal better.
As for money, no, you can't store it in the bank, but just stop caring! Every time you die, you lose 7% of your current money—the less you have, the less you should be afraid of dying. I've never had problems with money—even if you miss that rare gun in the shop, it is not like you won't find a better one soon.
There even is a reason and a way to keep you money low voluntarily: Slot machines. There's a low but reasonable chance to win Eridium there, and as cost of playing rises with the level of main quest, there's zero point in saving for later—money inflates, Eridium doesn't! My personal way of playing is to burn all my money in slots after each trip to battlefield. Longest forays usually net me mostly two to three "rounds"—that is, gambling sessions that end in full inventory (of course, buy inventory upgrades first).
Gamble!
- No money - no fear of death!
- Accidental good gun!
- Average of 0.1916 bars of Eridium per pull!
- Eventual "Jackpot!" badass challenge!
The only thing you need a lot of money for is "For the Hoard!" achievement - and accumulating 3,000,000 is fairly easy even at the end of Normal, and trivial at the end of TVHM.

Leaving into a different map then quitting & restarting the game will respawn the enemies so you can come back and do it again.
