In early June 2018 the car was totaled. Nationwide Insurance Agency finally got a check to Carmax to pay off the vehicle in August 2018. Carmax began calling me in September 2018 stating that I was behind on my payments. I explained the situation and they stated that...

He went to Carmax in Calgary. His credit is abysmal, BUT he had just started a new job with an excellent wage. He couldn't qualify for a loan. Carmax suggested he find a co-signer. When I worked in banking many years ago, the policy was a co-signer must have enough...

I agree with @CloseBeetle176. I understand your age, however, I feel as though you must have had some good faith in your son and thought/hoped he would pay for the truck because you signed off on the loan, your question is a question you should have asked before agreeing to allow your son to buy a car.
Also, there have been many instances when people can walk into any car dealership with no income at all but because they have stellar credit they are approved. You do not need a job to get an approval because if anything the fact that you have great credit can also mean that you may possibly have a great credit card to back up the payments or cost of the vehicle if something like what actually happened to your son happens! Hopefully, you don't put too much faith into your son again and let him talk you into buying him another car.
Good Luck! That was nice of you to help but only you know your son which means you doubted the situation in the beginning.

Don’t us online to apply for credit | Carmax
I applied online for a car and Carmax sent it to over 10 difference banks all at the same time. They all pulled credit reports from all credit companies and my fico score dropped. I did not buy from Carmax and never will. I called corporate office and they refused to fix the problem. They can have it removed with just a letter .

Carmax pulled a fast one. Carmax increased their profit by misquoting the payoff balance by over $50. On top of that, no one explained to me that they would take 2 weeks to submit the payoff balance on my outstanding loan. As a result, the finance company took another...

Paid off my car and it's been 2 months and I still have not received the title to my car. Plus, they still owe me an over payment.
I will no longer buy a car from CarMax. Never again.
