Seems pointless to even consider. If the primary signer didn't have enough funds to make the car payments, they probably will not have enough funds to pay any lawsuit you charge them with. Fact is, if the primary signer defaulted on payments, then the cosigner would be responsible for making them - If repossession occured, then it was due to the fault of the cosigner .. can't sue yourself.

A Co-signer is always responsible for the item unless the primary borrower refinances and removes the co-signer.

Cosigner means that if for ANY reason the main borrower cannot pay, cosigner will be responsible to pay.
