React Mongo select a specific field

I'm creating a react app and I connected my backend mongo where I want to store all my car brands, year, models etc. In react I'm using the select tag and there I get everything that is in the db. DB running. However, whenever I press a specific car brand and try to pick the year with another select tag it shows me the years of all the other car brands. How can I do it so it only shows me years of that specific car brand? Should only show 2012.

My get function

carRoutes.route('/').get(function(req, res) {
    Car.find(function(err, car) {
        if(err) {
            console.log(err);
        } else{
            res.json(car);
        }
    }).collation().sort({car_description:1});
});

My Schema

let Car = new Schema({
    car_description: {
        type: String
    },
    car_year:{
        type: String
    }
});

Try something like this (assuming car_description means the name):

Car.find({car_description: 'Audi'}).select('car_year -_id'); 
// you can replace 'Audi' with a variable which is assigned with the selected car name
