yes
Yes. If you signed the loan, you are still legally responsible for it.
if i get my car repossessed, can they put a llien on the house?
The other co-owner or cosigner will be responsible for the debt.
When you cosign for anyone you are taking 100% responsibility for the payments on that car. If the person that gets the car doesn't keep their payments up it will be repossessed by the bank with an option for the cosigner to take over payments or sell the car and pay back the loan. Marcy
It has the same effect on the credit.
Nope.
you are still liable for that loan. the lender may decide to not accept the bankruptcy charge and go after you for the money.
In the State of Texas, the answer would be "YES" as both parties signed for the car loan and both are responsible for the balance due. I was the primary signor but the cosigner had the car and was making the payments. Then she stopped making payments after owning the car for 3 years and the car was repossessed.
They can still come after the cosigner, and it will still reflect poorly on your cosigner's credit history. You have been absolved of the debt, not your cosigner.
Normally your credit is ruined for 7 years.
If you default on your loan, the cosigner is stuck with paying it off. If your credit had been any good in the first place, you would not have needed a cosigner.
