You have discovered the real reason for never co-signing with a friend. Now you have lost a friend and a lot of money. Go to the bank, explain your dilemma and let them know that you want the car picked up and that you'll pay for the cost of the Repo company and continue to pay for the note but you don't want to subsidize your former friend. When you get the car back, sell it yourself. If you send it to the auto auction you will be getting next to nothing fo the vehicle.

How does a reposession of a car affect your credit?

It of course effects your credit score. To learn more about your credit score visit either Experian, TransUnion or Equifax.

If possible, return it back to the dealer you purchased the car from.

Can you return an auto without a repossession on your credit report?

Your credit report will state that the vehicle was returned. It will still show a balance remaining once this vehicle is auctioned off. This is your best option, but it already has done it's damage to your credit report with missed payment. Also, this will affect your credit score monthly for the next two years from the date of last payment.


How can you get your credit score report mailed to you?

Some credit reporting companies will mail you your report, but you may have to do some research to find which ones. I suggest you go to the government mandated credit report site and download the official request form, print it out and then fill it out and return it to the address indicated. It may take 4-5 weeks for processing and delivery.
