Go to where the bankruptcy is filed and have the file pulled and there will be an accounting of all the debts and payments being currently made. It is public information.

What happens when someone you cosigned a mortgage for has filed for bankruptcy?
When you co-sign on a loan or mortgage for someone, you are promising to make the loan payments if they can't.

Will you lose your car if you make the payments but the loan is in someone else's name and they go bankrupt?
What will happen depends on the decision of the bankruptcy judge. If you are making the payments but the loan is in someone else's name, you do not have a legal leg to stand on. Still, the bankruptcy law in the United States, recognizes the need for an automobile. So, that person may keep the car.

If an account is closed by a credit grantor why would the card holder continue to make payments after bankruptcy findings are closed?
The card holder is under no legal obligation for the card holder to continue making payments after filing for bankruptcy, unless the case is dismissed without a discharge. There are some who believe that they can improve their credit rating by pay off debts that were discharged in a bankruptcy, but I believe there are better methods to reestablish credit after bankruptcy.
