Co-sign car lease contract. Is credit score affected?

[arm2000]

If I co-sign in a car lease contract, will my credit score be affected?

[completebook]

Yes because they have to do a credit check on you.

[Jucius Maximus]

Also, if the other person fails to pay, their failure will hurt your credit.

Furthermore, if they go bankrupt, the financing company will come after YOU for the money!

I would never co-sign for anything unless I was married to the person.
