If a person fails to make a loan payment, it can lead to several consequences, including late fees, damage to their credit score, and potential legal action from the lender. The lender may attempt to recover the debt through collections, and repeated failures to pay could result in foreclosure (for secured loans) or repossession. It's important for borrowers to communicate with their lender if they anticipate difficulties, as they may offer options such as deferment or restructuring the loan.

If I'm getting a co-signer for a car what do I do?

You must make certain the person who has agreed to co-sign your loan understands they will be fully responsible for paying the debt if you default on the loan or if you die while the loan is outstanding. Their name should also be on the title to the car and the insurance so they can be notified if you don't pay the insurance or take the car over if you fail to pay and they must make the payments. Most people don't realize all the financial responsibility that comes from co-signing for another person's car loan. If the co-signer owns any real property it could become vulnerable to your creditor if you default on the loan.
