Yes. A co-signer is fully responsible for the debt. If the primary borrower doesn't make the payments it will be reflected on the credit record of both borrowers. If the primary defaults, the bank will go after the co-borrower for payment. That is the purpose of having a co-signer. The co-signer guarantees the debt will be repaid.
