You could try to sue the primary in civil court. It may not be possible to actually win a suit until after actions have taken place to actually cause you damages. These damages would include, but are not limited to, a negative credit score, judgment, garnishment, etc.

YES !!! He/she should certainly discuss it with the cosigner. It may be a gift or it may just be that the cosigner doesn't want to have that note appearing on his/her credit report. Whatever the reason, even if the cosigner did it as a gift, the primary should acknowledge and express appreciation. But be prepared if the cosigner expects the loan to be paid back.
