It depends on what state you are in that you chose NOT to post.
Not sure I understand reply. I co-signed loan with ex, whom lives in other state now. Car was reposessed in that state and I was not notified by ex. I did not know car was sold at auction since bank sent me its notice of intent to sell to an out-to-date address ( I found this out after contacting bank upon learning of repo). I can prove the bank had a current address on me. Can I fight the deliquency balance since bank knowingly sent notice to wrong address.

Yes. Most lenders give customers 10 to 15 days grace to make a payment or for a payment made to post. However, by the language of most car notes, anything past a certain period of time (usually two weeks) is considered delinquent, and the balance of the loan is owed. The lender at this point is not required to accept anything less than payment of the remaining balance. And, the vehicle can be repossessed at any time to secure payment of the remaining balance.

Repo on your credit from several years back you were recently told you would have to pay this off to get a new loan Is this true?
I would think most lenders would be hesitant to loan you more money when you have a delinquent outstanding balance on an old debt. You would be considered a poor risk. Usually when your vehicle is repossessed it is auctioned off and the proceeds are applied to the balance of the loan after any commissions, fees or other charges are deducted. You are then responsible for the remaining balance.

If a vehicle is repossessed is a cosigner responsible for 100 percent of the balance?
Jason, you are just as responsible as the signor. Think about it, you knew the signor's credit wasnt good or you wouldn't have needed to co-sign. When you co-sign, you are saying "if they don't pay this loan,I WILL". Make sure the lender knows where the the whereabouts of the signor and how to get in contact with them. good luck
