It depends on the laws of the state where the vehicle is titled and the wording of the title itself.

Only if the cosigner is also named on the vehicle title.
What rights does a cosigner have to gain possession of the vehicle if his name is on the title in Pennsylvania?
It depends on what the title says. The title can say "The owner of the vehicle is Name 1 or Name 2." If the title says this then the cosigner has limited rights to get the car. Whoever has the vehicle can sell the car without the cosigners signature. Now if the cosigner has the car, the cosigner can sell the car without the main owners signature. If the title states Name 1 and Name 2, then you have same rights as the main owner of the car. This means if Name 1 trys to sell it, they can't sell it without your signature.

Does a cosigner have any rights to the vehicle if the payments are current and the title does not list the cosigner's name?
NO, the ONLY rights a co-signor has is to pay off the loan if the debtor defaults. Unless, they are listed on the title. Two different ballgames.
Can the cosigner demand that the car remain in the same state where he or she resides?
No, a cosigner does not have any legal rights to the vehicle, but does have the legal obligation to repay the debt if the primary borrower defaults on the contract. An exception could be if the cosigner is also named on the title to the vehicle, and if so, how the title is worded.
