The car, regardless of who's making the payments, is your responsibility. You bought it, you're the owner. This is why it's not wise to buy such large items for others and then assuming they'll make good on the payments. If you have a written agreement with the other person that states they're responsible for payments, you could sue them to collect, but as far as lenders and your credit are concerned, the car belongs to you.
The answer depends on who signed the loan documents. If you signed with a co-signer the default will stay on both credit records.
The cosigner's credit isn't affected one ioto unless the person who was responsible for the loan payments defaulted, then and if the cosigner also defaulted. In other words, just being a cosigner does not affect ones credit ratings.
Credit ratings are scored according to a person's previous repayment history. So if someone has previously made all their repayments on time, their credit score will be higher than that of someone who has consistently defaulted on payments.
in actual fact it may even be easier as long as you haven't defaulted on any payments.
no if you still have it yes if you gave it to someone as a "gift"
Once a loan of any kind has defaulted, there is no changing it. If you mean that you missed one payment, this is not necessarily a defaulted account. Once the lender sells your debt or passes it to an agency to recover the amount owned, then things are different. In the UK a missed payment or late payment will show on a credit search for six years. This can be removed if the total amount of the loan has been paid and you write to the credit agency to ask them to remove the information. Do not pay someone to do this, it costs nothing!
A credit history is a record held by credit reporting agencies like Equifax and Experian, of the credit you currently have and have held in the past. It also records how good you have managed that credit. There are many factors that determine your credit history. For instance, you may find you have got bad credit in case you have missed payments or defaulted on a loan.
No.
Generally, it means that your income tax refunds are withheld and applied as involuntary payments of defaulted student loans and delinquent child support payments. But it may mean a credit, in the case of the state of Missouri's non-resident tax offset credit. Non-resident students get a dollar-for-dollar credit on the non-resident part of their tuition.

No. Your credit score is always your own. Your spouse's credit does not affect yours (and vice-versa) unless you apply for credit jointly. However, even if you are extended credit jointly, any late payments or defaulted loans appear on each of your credit scores, and affects your credit scores individually.
Simply to find out whether the person they may be lending to - is a good 'risk'. A credit search will reveal if a person (a) has exceeded their credit limit, (b) delayed or missed payments on a loan or credit card, or (c) has defaulted on payments - resulting in a county court judgement (CCJ) against them.
