YES! Do not release the title of the vehicle until it is COMPLETELY paid off. Once they hold the title, they can stop paying and there is nothing you can do... legally.

Would like to find out who has husban's truck title?

Then ask him? If he transferred the truck title to someone else, it's no longer his title. If he's still making payments on the truck, then it's the financier who holds the title. If he put the truck up as collateral for something, then they're the ones with the title.


How can a co-buyer take possession of a truck when the primary borrower is not making the payments?

When someone co-signs, they are basically just agreeing to making the payments when the signer can not. * Any legal rights that a cosigner or a co-buyer(borrower) have depend upon whether or not their name is on the title to the vehicle.


How can you find out if the bank still owns your car if you never registered the car in your current state?

If you possess the title, then you own it. If you've been making the payments, you should know whether or not you've defaulted on them. If you haven't finished making the payments, the financier owns that vehicle.

Can a cosigner repossess a car if the primary borrower stops making payments?

No. Only the lender can "repossess" a vehicle. You need to keep making the payments to protect your own credit. It is likely you would need to bring a court action, prove you are making the payments and petition the court to order a transfer of title.
