Best Answer

A co-signer is the legal borrower of the money for a vehicle. You're only along for the ride in the hopes it will bring your credit up if all the payments are made properly. The car can be repoed if you drop insurance, make late payments, or otherwise don't keep the car in good condition while there is a loan on the vehicle. Pay your debts or surrender the property. That's the law.
