If you cosign on a loan and they don't pay the bill and the car gets repossessed are you able to go after the primary debtor in court to make them responsible for any outstanding debt?

No. You cosigned on the loan. You are the bank's back-up payment if the first person defaults on payment and you become responsible. That is why it is very important that you trust the person you cosign for or you have the funds to pay for the car if they default. If you pay for the car, it becomes yours. Before it was repossessed, the bank should have notified you in writing. Then you have the option to take the car and pay for it. Both credits will by hurt substantially.
