To remove a cosigner from a car loan and title, you typically need to refinance the loan solely in your name. This involves applying for a new loan based on your creditworthiness and income, which can be challenging if your financial situation has changed since the original loan was taken out. Once approved for refinancing, the lender will pay off the existing loan, and the cosigner will be released from their obligations on the loan and title.
