Best Answer

Yes, if you are on the lending contract and the non-owner spouse is not relieved of the responsibility in the dissolution terms of the marriage. In many cases the stipulation in the divorce decree releasing a spouse from the financial responsibility will not be enough for the lender to do likewise. The spouse who is taking the financial responsbility must refinance the property to have the non-owner spouse legally released from the obligation.

What is the difference on a car loan between a coowner and a cosigner?

Fairly simply, a co-owner owns the car, and possibly the way your phrasing it, the primary responsibility for the loan. Hence, the (co)owner will own the car when the loan is paid off. A cosigner is essentially only a guarantor of the loan receivor. He is also responsible for the payment of the loan to the bank. He has no responsibility, and possibly no rights, in the property it is attached to. I would note that it is possible (and more correct but in a sophesticated lender type of way) that the term coowner would mean that the loan is "cowned" by two (or more)lenders. As in Bank 1 and Bank 2 both own 1 loan on a property, having each given funds and each receiving the benefits (payments from the one receiving the loan) of the loan. This rarely occurs on simple finance transactions so I supect this is not what you mean.
