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.

If you make three consecutive payments on a defaulted car loan are you still considered in default?

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!


What Is A Credit History And What Is Bad Credit?

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.

Why do lenders carry out a credit search?

Simply to find out whether the person they may be lending to - is a good 'risk'.
