Yes. The bank or finance copy doesn't care what your divorce papers say. They weren't a party to your divorce. You are on the hook until it is paid off.

Yes. Mr. Hensley is absolutely right, as usual!

But, if the creditor sues you, you can use the divorce decree to bring your ex in as a sunrogator. ( the court will order that he owes you, whatever you owe the creditor)..
