I am very sorry for your loss. Generally speaking, all obligors whose names are on the note/auto loan would be liable for the deficiency.

Re: Car Finance debt after dead

If the financing company seizes the automobile and there is a deficiency, they will bring an action to collect the deficiency.

It is also unclear which state the automobile is located in. Your question is cryptic and almost in shorthand. Try providing more information to obtain a more detailed answer, or speak with an attorney.
