If a co-signer of a car loan dies, the responsibility for the loan typically falls to the primary borrower. The lender may require the primary borrower to assume full responsibility for the loan payments. It's important for the primary borrower to communicate with the lender about the situation, as they may need to provide documentation of the co-signer's death. In some cases, the estate of the deceased co-signer could also be liable for the debt, depending on the specific circumstances and local laws.
What else can I help you with?
Will my car be taken if my cosigner dies?
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.
Does a cosigner have rights to the car even when its paid off?
No, the cosigner will not have rights to the car after its paid off because the purpose of a cosigner is to pay off the notice if you fail to do so. Being a cosigner does not give them to any rights to the car.
Can the cosigner register the car?
Yes, the cosigner can register the car if they are listed on the title and have the necessary documentation.

A cosigner can attempt to sell the car at anytime. However, in order for them to sell it, they have to have the other signer's signature.
What happens when your son dies leaving an outstanding car loan?
My sympathies to you and your family. If you, your husband or anyone else in the family didn't cosign for a loan for the car then the debt ends. If there was a cosigner then the cosigner is responsible for the debt. If your son was not a minor and took the loan out himself and he has left a Will or has anything of value this debt will be paid off or written off.
