ONLY if your name is on the TITLE as co-owner or leinholder can you "repo" the car.
They should since they are just as responsible for making payments as the primary.
Not as long as you make your payments on time. A co-signer guarantees that you will pay your loan off. If your co-signer dies and you don't make your payments the lender will repossess the car and go after you for any deficiencies.
Only if the primary has said s/he will surrender the property in the bankruptcy and/or if the cosigner does not make the payments due.
No. Only the lender can "repossess" a vehicle. You need to keep making the payments to protect your own credit. It is likely you would need to bring a court action, prove you are making the payments and petition the court to order a transfer of title.
when you catch up on deliquent payments
Three payments
Since the cosigners isn't paying, unless you start paying instead, and catch up on all late payments, the dealer or the bank will repossess the vehicle shortly anyway, so your question is moot.
If the co signers credit is going to be affected because of the lack of payments from the payee, and if the co signer is paying for the payments, then yes the car can be given over to the co signer, especially if the payee is not paying for the car that was agreed upon. check with the finance companies, and your local state, county laws.
No, they'd repossess your car.
Yes, it is your car.
Yes.
