∙ 2011-09-12 21:32:32Most loan contracts have a 'right to accelerate the balance due" clause to cover the LENDER if they don't think the signors can make the payments in a timely manner.
This is very true, however if you ever find yourself unable to make the full payment on anything, the best thing to do is contact your lendor. Most lendor's would prefer to receive some payment rather than repossess and try to resell, they WILL loose money. So if you make arrangements with them they will most likely be willing to work with you. However, I really do NOT suggest making such arrangemtns and then not paying, because the lenders will NOT be happy, they WILL repossess and you WILL owe them the whole amount before they let you have the property back.

∙ 2011-09-12 21:32:32The lender can require just about anything, but it is more likely that they will want every name on the title to be on the loan, not the other way around. If anyone should insist the cosigner's name be on the title, it would be the cosigner himself. That will give him a right to take possession of the vehicle if he is stuck with the payments.
I'm sure you won't like this answer, but only the lender can repossess the collateral. If the cosigner is also a co-owner and listed on the title, he could insist on taking his turn driving the car. But essentially, the only right a cosigner has is the "right" to make the payments if the primary borrower does not.
No. A cosigner is not a co-owner of the property simply by signing the loan contract. They must specifically insist that they be added to the title. Otherwise they have promised to pay for property they do not own if the primary borrower fails to pay.No. A cosigner is not a co-owner of the property simply by signing the loan contract.

The lender will probably insist that all names on the title also be on the loan, but not the other way around.
Pay all the payments that are in arrears for starters. The lending company may insist on re-writing the loan at a higher interest rate as you are now an "at risk" borrower. Bottom line, pay what is owed on time, every time ... if you are going to be even one hour late in any payment, notify the lender - usually something can be worked out.
In many places, depending on the lease, the landlord can insist on the minimum amount of insurance the tenant has.
If you have renigged on paying your portion of the car bill, yes.It doesn't matter who he is. The fact is...he cosigned for you. But, you can contact your consumer affairs bureau and see if they have a brochure on vehicle repossession. Ps Your ex bf sounds tons nicer than any of mine. He can't "repossess" because he is not the lienholder. If he is listed on the title as a co-owner, he has the same right of possession that you have and could insist on "taking his turn". But if he is only a co-signer on the loan, the only "right" he has is to make the payments if you don't. If he has had to make some of the payments for you, he could sue you for reimbursement.
insist
Insist what? New Atheists insist everything other Atheists insist. The Denial of the claim there is a God by Theistic religions.
An antonym of "insist" is abandon.
If your car was repossessed, you can't really keep it, since you no longer have it.If you act very quickly (I'm suggest calling the lienholder the instant you know the car is gone), you might be able to recover it before it's sold to someone else. At the very least you should expect to have to make any missed payments good immediately; if it wasn't a simple case of one missed payment in an otherwise spotless repayment history, the lienholder might well insist that you pay off the loan in its entirety.In other words: it's possible, it's just not terribly likely.
First off buying a repossessed car is a horrible idea. You are buying a car that someone could not even make payments on. Do you think they took care of this vehicle? Do you think it was serviced regularly, the oil/filter were changed, and anything else necessary was done. More than likely the car was neglected and just driven. Unless the car as very low mileage, these cars are usually run to death. You can wear a car out in short order if you neglect it and drive it as though you know you are going to loose it. Saying that, if you insist on buying one, contact the lenders in your area and ask about their repo cars and when/where they will be sold.
