If you fail to return a car when the lease ends and they repossess is it legal for them to report this as a repo on your credit?

YES, its legal. The lease you signed was a legal contract calling for you to do certain things at certain times. You defaulted on those terms and the Lender is reporting that you defaulted.

Will apartment lease show up on co-signers credit score?
When the co-signer signed for the signer then the co-signer accepted the debt as his/her own. If the signer does not fulfil the terms of the lease then the co-signer will be responsible and it will appear on the credit report. If and when it effects the credit score will depend what is contained in the report now, example to many debts, not paying per the guidelines of the other debts, etc. Some credit report sites have scenerio calculators, most times they are free to use.
If you cosign for an apartment lease will an amount show up on your credit report even though you are not the primary borrower?
A lease is not an agreement to lend money, but to accept monthly installments in exchange for housing over a period of time. Since there is no debt, there is nothing to report on a credit report. The leasing agency will pull both of your credit reports to make sure they want to offer you the lease, and it may create a small address variance on your report (this is unlikely to be of consequence and will not affect your score) unless they make the pull with your correct address. Nothing from your leasing company will appear on your credit unless you default on monies owed (leave without paying a portion of rent or a deposit). If that occurs, they will usually sell the debt to a collection agency that will report you to the credit agencies.
