Yes, you can sue the borrower and receive a judgment if they defaulted on the loan. They can also sue the cosigner.
You need to discuss the situation with the lender and provide proof that the primary borrower lied on the application. However, the lender may not want to hear your story. You stepped up to guarantee that the loan would be paid. You may need to sue the primary borrower in court yourself if they have defaulted on the loan.
Anyone is allowed to sue anyone in this day and age, however, the point of having a co-signer is because the primary borrower may not have a credit profile strong enough to get a loan on their own. When suing someone, the goal is to get paid - if the primary borrower did not have enough money or enough credit strength to get a loan, what, exactly, will the co-signer sue them to get? So yes, a co-signer may sue the primary borrower, however, unless circumstances have changed massively since the shared loan was signed, there will be nothing for the co-signer to go after. Depending on the amount of the loan you can sue in small claims court or a higher civil court.

Generally, yes, assuming that the "car owner" is the person who took out the loan that was co-signed AND that the owner defaulted on the loan and the co-signer was forced to pay the balance of the loan. Typically, the main borrower, i. e. the car owner, is primarily liable for the loan while a co-signer is only secondarily liable. This means that the co-signer has no obligation to make payments unless the primary borrower defaults. In most contracts involving co-signers, the contract will have a provision that if the co-signer has to pay on behalf of the primary borrower, then the primary borrower must indemnify the co-signer. If the primary borrower refuses to pay the co-signer, the co-signer can sue the car owner to recover what he paid for the car owner.
If you're not on the title then you only agreed to pay the loan if the person buying it doesn't. This doesn't give you any right to the car. However, you can sue the primary borrower in civil court if they defaulted on the loan and you made the payments. The judge may order the primary to sign the title over to you.

There is no "protection" for a co-signer except paying the loan if the primary borrower doesn't pay. If you don't pay the loan then your credit will be ruined. If you pay off the loan you can try to sue the primary borrower in civil court but the chance of reimbursement isn't generally good if they needed a co-signer in the first place.Understand that when you co-sign for a loan you are guaranteeing that you will pay if the primary borrower doesn't.
Of course. That's what co-signers are agreeing to when they co-sign.
Not arbitrarily, the co-signer would need to sue the primary borrower and be awarded the vehicle or the money owed to complete the loan agreement.
The lender can sue for the amount of the loan (including interest and late fees), and any legal fees (such as court filing fees and attorney's fees). They COULD garnish wages and repo any collateral used to "get" the loan.
