There's many variables in your question. But assuming they have a judgment (again with the variables) - it depends on your state. MA for instant, is 20 years. And with all states you're responsible for post judgment interest, court fees, attorney fees and any post judgment remedies like wage garnishment. So rather than worrying about not paying it back, do the right thing and payback the debt your signed for.
Experience: I own a collection agency.
When a person is taken to civil court (for example, a credit card company suing a cardholder to get paid back), the court makes a judgment for or against the plaintiff (entity initiating the lawsuit, in this example, the credit card company). If the judgment is for the plaintiff, the result is effectively a judgment against the defendant (the person taken to court in the example). Part of the judgment is the amount that is to be paid to the entity winning the court case (judgment). Judgements against a borrower (and the amount set to be paid by that borrower) will make their way onto the credit report and will cause a drop in credit score.
It is possible to get an out-of-court settlement for a credit card. Credit card companies and collection agencies offer a variety of payment and settlement options for the debtor.
Although the interest rate is very high, a credit card can be taken to a bank to receive a "cash advance." This is essentially a loan that needs to be paid back.

Yes. A car can be taken for a credit card debt if the creditor sues you in court, is successful and obtains a judgment lien. The creditor can use that judgment lien to take any property you own including your home and your car and your bank account.
