To make the car payments. Just be glad you have the car too.
A cosigner must have good credit, a reliable income and the willingness to sign for another individual. Cosigners help primary borrowers build a good credit history, along with on-time 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.
Yes, a co-borrower is as responsible for a debt as is the primary borrower. The main difference between co-buyers and cosigners is that a cosigner generally does not have any claims to the property in question but bears the responsibility of repaying the debt should the primary borrowers default on the agreement.
Since the cosigners isn't paying, unless you start paying instead, and catch up on all late payments, the dealer or the bank will repossess the vehicle shortly anyway, so your question is moot.
Generally speaking no. Cosigners are needed for a purpose, and most often it is because the primary debtors has bad credit.
The co-signer is fully responsible for paying the loan and, therefore, they should take over the payments immediately to prevent damage to their own credit record.Cosigners should make certain they know what their obligations are before they sign. A person who has poor credit or no credit record needs a cosigner when they borrow money. A cosigner is a person who accepts the responsibility of repayment of a loan along with the primary borrower. The lender requires a cosigner to increase the chances that it will be repaid. The cosigner is sometimes referred to as the guarantor because they guarantee the full repayment of the loan in the event the borrower defaults. The cosigned loan will appear as a debt on the cosigners credit record.The co-signer is fully responsible for paying the loan and, therefore, they should take over the payments immediately to prevent damage to their own credit record.Cosigners should make certain they know what their obligations are before they sign.

Yes. It is a common misconception that cosigners are not responsible for the debt of the primary on the account they signed. I'm not sure how that started, or why it persists, but cosigners, comakers, coguarantors, and cobuyers are equally responsible for the debt they sign with the primary. Collections agencies will not waste a lot of time trying to get a primary to pay when there is a cosigner who is easier to locate. And, because both are equally responsible, there is no need to even try to get the primary who is not paying to do what they are already not doing when the contract was written based on the better credit of the cosigner.
No. If you are not on the deed, you can't sell the property. The only "right" you have as a cosigner is the obligation to make the payments.
No.
The cosigner can ask but I seriously doubt they will be successful. The cosigner knew the risks when they signed the loan application. The cosigner knew, or should have known, the borower's history of successful loan payoffs were questionable at best. The cosigner assumed the responsibility when they signed on.
Only if the cosigner is also named on the vehicle title.
