If you have no money, then why in the world would you cosign for a loan? If they cannot get the money owed out of the primary lender then will look at you for money. They will more than likely sue you for the balance. If you don't pay your credit will be ruined. Sounds like you cosigned for a loser and now you will pay for that mistake.
Contact the lender and let them knoiw that if ANY case the debtor defaults to notify you so you can payoff the loan. Add that you will payoff after repo with NO repo reported on YOUR credit.
Both are responsible until paid in full. It will also be on both credit reports as well.
the repo rate is the rate that the reserve bank lends money to commercial banks
The LENDER put the repo on there so they will be the one to take it off. NEGOTIATE.
NOPE! sadly they don't even have to tell you they repoed or are going to repo. the unit. This includes houses, Good rule, DO NOT COSIGN.
First things first; find out who's name is on the registration and title. If it is only in one of your names, you could be in trouble. I suggest you call a lawyer and fast if that is the case and your name isn't on either of them. A doubt very much if a lender will release a cosigner from any obligation if the collateral is not fully paid for. In this case the collateral is a car and its a repo mans dream. Remember to always know your cosigner.

If you are up-to-date then no, if you are a cosigner there may be complications...

they will repo it
If you are a co-signer of a repossesion, and the primary borrower has not made an attempt to make their payments then you are fully responsible for this debt.
ONLY if your name is on the TITLE as co-owner or leinholder can you "repo" the car.
One day late puts you in default and when in default, you are subject to repo. MOST lenders wait 30-60 days. They want the MONEY, not the car.
They will come to you for the money if they can't find him. It will be on your credit as a repo as well. As a co-signer, you sign that you will take over payments if the signer fails to make the payments.
You need to calol the LENDER and discuss this.
VERY possible. reporting repos is up to the LENDER(of course, they usually do). It was very much repoed from you sooo. Nothing you can do about the co-signor having or not having a repo on their credit.
