If the person the co signer was signing for died they would not be liable for the remaining amount due. Also the other way around if the cosigner dies then the car would be paid for after death, but there would probably be two different plans for that.

What should you do if a co-signer on a car loan totaled car with no insurance now you are paying the loan?

You should sue the co-signer. Even though you may be the primary person obligated to pay the loan, he is responsible to you for totalling your car. You still have to pay the loan company because you took out the loan; but the co-signer caused the loss. You won't be able to force the loan company to take payments from him though. Getting him to reimburse you will be your problem.
