    Generally speaking, I would not advocate co-signing for a car loan since you’ll be just as liable for the loan as if you signed the loan yourself. But if your child really needs a car, is financially responsible, is buying an economical used car (as opposed to a luxurious new car) and you’re in a financial situation where you can afford to pick up the payments if he/she is not able to make the payments, then go for it.

    Does your credit score matter Generally speaking your credit score will benefit every time you pay off a loan and improve your credit rating.
