No. However, they may end up paying for a car they don't own. A co-signer should make sure they are fully informed before co-signing another person's loan. The co-signer is fully responsible for paying the loan if the primary borrower doesn't make the payments. One very serious complication when co-signing for a car loan occurs when the primary doesn't insure the car, wrecks it and stops paying the loan since, remember, they didn't have any money or credit in the first place. In that case, the bank will go after the co-signer for payment of the balance of the loan and everyone's credit will be in ruins.
If, on the other hand, you are a part owner of the vehicle then your property may become vulnerable in the case of an underinsured or uninsured accident with property damages and injuries. You should discuss the legal aspects of the proposed co-signing with a quick consult with an attorney.

How do you get your name taken off of a loan you co-signed for without having to pay the transfer of ownership payment that the borrower does not want to pay?
When you co-sign that is YOUR LOAN! I am sure your banking institution made you aware of this. When one chooses to co-sign it's because the person they co-signed for cannot get a loan for one reason or the other. In over 90% of the cases the person you co-signed for does not pay off the loan. I suggest you go into your banking institution where you co-signed for that loan and make an appointment and see what they can do for you. However you handle this you will be paying out something.

If I cosign for a rental property how an I held liable if they don't pay their rent?
It's the same as co-signing for a loan. If they don't pay, you will be contacted. If you don't pay it can be reported to the credit bureau. When you co-sign any contract or loan, you are guaranteeing the payment(s) on behalf of the person you co-signed for. If the person you co-signed for does not make the payment(s), the person who is owed has a right to demand payment from you. By co-signing, you entered into a legal contract.
Can a furniture store use my name again eleven years after a loan as co signer for the same borrower without my knowledge or approval?
Not for a new loan. Your name as co-signer for a loan can only be applied if you signed the original loan document as co-signer. Now, 11 years later if the person you co-signed for the first time tries to open another loan using you as co-signer they will have to get you to sign a loan document again, just like the first time. If you find that you are a co-signer without having signed the document you should ask the furniture store to see the loan document. You may find that your signature has been forged.
What happens to your credit if you co-sign for someone and they quit making payments?

If you co signed for an auto loan will the bank refuse to give you your own loan even if the original loan is not default?
Not if you qualify with both payments. Since you co-signed for another loan, they will count that debt and payment into your debt ratios. If you still qualify, there should be no issues unless multiple car loans to one person is prohibited by a lending policy.
