If the co-signer on my car loan dies, can the family take the car from me like they're threatening to?
I was in a similar situation about a year ago, and the expedient thing to do would be to remove your grandfather from the Title.  He would probably have to agree with this, but I think he will if you approach it correctly. In my case, I was the cosigner for my son's car loan and was told by the dealer that I "had to be on the title".  This is not true as far as Virginia is concerned (Illinois may be different).  I know this because when my son dropped his auto insurance I got the fine for having an uninsured vehicle and was told during the hearing that the dealer was mistaken. It all worked out in the end, but all we had to do was go down to the DMV and get my name taken off of the title. I'm sure if you approach it this way - you do not want him to be responsible for things that you do (who would get sued if you caused an accident?) he would agree to have his name removed from the title.
