In New York, a surviving spouse is generally not personally responsible for the deceased spouse's outstanding car loan unless they co-signed the loan. The responsibility for paying the loan typically falls to the deceased's estate. If the estate does not have sufficient assets to cover the loan, the lender may repossess the vehicle, but the surviving spouse would not be liable for the remaining debt. It's advisable for the surviving spouse to consult with a probate attorney for personalized guidance.
