Not likely.
Oh yes it does. That person put their credit on the line when they signed the contract making me a cosigner.
If you're talking about a cosigner, then yes. The cosigner's credit gets dinged also. Be careful about who you cosign for.
Both are responsible until paid in full. It will also be on both credit reports as well.

Without knowing your co-signer's finances, this is impossible to answer. However, if you obtain a discharge of your liability on a mortgage loan, the co-signer would have 100% liability for the remaining balance. If that person is able to make the payments, then no harm would come to their credit record. If the loan gets paid late, goes into default and foreclosure; those derogatory listings would be reflected on that person's credit report and THAT would jeopardize his/her credit.

The cosigner is equally responsible for the loan and may be pursued for any outstanding debts, fees, or deficiencies resulting from the repossession.

The co-signer's credit record is wrecked as badly as the primary borrower's. The co-signer has guaranteed the loan would be paid and they are held equally responsible for paying the loan if the primary borrower fails to pay. It will be noted as a default on their credit record. "Co-signers" who agree to guarantee repayment of a loan for a poor credit risk often do so without understanding their own risk and whether they have the resources to repay that loan.
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
