When someone co-signs, they are basically just agreeing to making the payments when the signer can not. * Any legal rights that a cosigner or a co-buyer(borrower) have depend upon whether or not their name is on the title to the vehicle.
Most likely, but alot of it depends on the co signers credit score, also if they have sources of income other than a job. The purpose of a co signer is for the bank to have someone to go after for a debt if you don't pay.
You should be a non-occupying co-borrower on the note, which means that you will not be living at the residence but you are vouching for the primary borrower in case he/she cant make payments. So basically, your credit is on the line. If you didnt handle the situation in that manner there are numerous other possibilities.

It can have a negative effect if the primary borrower doe not make their payments on time. When you co-sign for a loan you are making a guarantee to the lender that the loan will be paid. If you decide to co-sign for someone else you need to make sure you can pay the loan if they stop making payments and you should also make certain the payments are being made on time. Late payments and missed payments will be reported to your credit record as well as that of the primary borrower.
If your name is the borrower name and someone else is making payments and they suddenly stop; then the car will eventually get repoed and it will show on your credit report.
Either party ON THE TITLE is entitled to possession, but someone will HAVE to make payments or it will be repoed.

None, unless the cosigner is also on the title of the vehicle they have no legal rights to the property. When someone cosigns a loan for any reason they accept the responsibility of paying the debt if the primary borrower defaults. The only option a cosigner has in recovering money paid out in connection with the loan is to sue the primary borrower in the appropriate court, in the city or county where the borrower lives.
== == * Many people do not realize that by co-signing you are also a borrower on the loan; so even though the other borrower (co-borrower) may have died, you are now solely responsible for repayment of the debt. == == * If the note is secured by a mortgage on real estate that the borrower owned, the borrower's estate may have an interest in the property that can be liquidated to pay off the loan. Life insurance may also help protect a co-signer from bearing the entire burden in a situation like this.
