Unless you have a stipulation in your divorce decree regarding responsibility for the loan, you are stuck until the loan is paid off. The only one who can repossess the car is the company who holds the loan, but the amount owed would still be outstanding. You could see if you could get him to refinance the loan on his own...I am not sure about your liability if the car is totalled without insurance to cover it. Meanwhile, pay all of your bills and work on getting your credit into shape. If you can save money to pay cash for a car "for now," that would help you for the short term.

Can a cosigner request half of the insurance check if his name is on the title but he didn't have to make any payments or buy insurance?

Cosigner just means someone who guaranteed the note. What's on the title? If the cosigner is on the title, he/she is entitled to half of the proceeds of a sale or insurance liquidation because it's the TITLE that determines the ownership, not who paid for it.

Im a primary borrower on a loan n i had2 have a cosigner to get my car. i have made several payments on my carnthe cosigner had told me tht he had the car sold hes now got the not makein payments?

Something is not right here. If you are the primary, then why is the cosigner making payments and why does the cosigner have possession of the vehicle? The is back-wards of what it should be. And why in the world would you put the cosigners name on the title? You have a mess on your hands, because you went about this all wrong. You need to contact a lawyer ASAP.
