It depends on how the vehicle is titled. If both of your names are on the title she has an equal right to possession of the vehicle as you do. So technically she could take it. But then again you could take it back because you have the same right to the vehicle as she does. Now if its just her name on the title then she can take it without your consent and there's nothing you can do about it.

Can a cosigner take away your car even though payments are not delinquent?

Can a cosigner take the car away from the borrower without permission from the borrower By towing it or using the second key to take the vehicle?
A co-signer is not an owner of the car. As such, the co-signer cannot take the car away from the borrower without the borrower's permission.
What are the rights of a cosigner?
A cosigner is a person who signs with another person for a loan of some sort due to credit issues or financial reasons. A cosigner unfortunately does not have as many rights as the person who is first listed on a loan. For example, if you purchase a car and your boyfriend/girlfriend cosigns for you and you two break up, they cannot take the car away from you. However, if you are late on payments, the cosigner will then be responsible for the payments.

Your name is the first name after the leasing company on the title your cosigner is trying to take your car you've made all your payments on time can they force you to give up your car?
I had this very same instance come up and the police were called. They told me that as long as the payments were being made and you have proof of you making the payments on time, the cosigner has to leg to stand on when trying to take the car. So NO your cosigner can not take the car.
What legal recourse is there for the cosigner when the person that was cosigned for has defaulted on the loan?
The usual legal recourse for the cosigner when the person named as the primary on a loan has defaulted, is to make the payments on the loan. Then, the cosigner can take the person who defaulted to court to try and recoup some of the money they are out. If the loan was for a car, some states allow the cosigner to take possession of the car and sell it to recoup losses also.
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 a cosigner take over the total loan on a car?
Yes. You need to discuss this with the lender.
How do you take a car from the owner if you are a cosigner?

What happens when the signer of a car loan passes away and there is a cosigner as well?
