Yes
Let someone else take over the payments.
You must talk to the lender who has a lien on the vehicle. It is up to them if you will be allowed to take over the payments.
it doesn't matter if the pope takes over your vehicle payments. if he stops making them, your credit is damaged and the vehicle is repossessed.
If they signed the promissory note, then it is legal, and binding.
Contact the lender. They wil have to agree to this. After all they hold the lien to the vehicle, and legally it is their vehicle until you pay fo it.
The best place to go for advice about someone taking over car payments is the local bank. They will be able to offer advice about what to do if someone is no longer able to pay their car payments.
You can have someone take over the payments if they meet the credit requirements of the bank you have the financing with. You might also be able to get someone that wants your car to get their own financing to pay off your car.
Well, a vehicle can be repossessed with no notification, so there's not much you can do about that. If the payments were taken over by family members, it's assumed the first family member was aware someone else would be paying for the truck and so is still responsible to see that the payments are made.
Contact the lender and get their approval.
You need to make those payments directly to the creditor or the late payments will be reflected as your own debt on your credit record. Thats what you contracted to do when you decided to be the co-signer. You should never hand over cash to pay loan payments to a person who is already defaulting on those payments. You may want to consult with an attorney about taking possession of the vehicle through a civil process.
You and the person wanting to take over the payments, go in a sit down with the lender who holds the note, and talk about it. The lender must agree to this for it to happen.
Someone may approve you but you will have an outrageous percentage rate and your payments will be high. Safe to say with bad credit you will have payments over 500.00/month for 7,000. Try to get some of the money together or begin to repair your credit or set you sights lower for a cheaper vehicle.
