Im 68 years old woman and I have $189,000 credit card debt My income is $1300 after tax and I cannot afford to make payment anymore

You can try to file bankruptcy, but most likely there will be objections to you receiving a discharge.  What you are saying is that you borrowed $180,000 on your cards at a time when you only make $1,300 per month net, so you clearly had no ability to repay the loans.  If your son is willing to testify that he promised to pay you back and also provide proof of the supposed investment, then you might have a chance to discharge the debts, most likely in a Chapter 13 case. But unless you have any assets and if your income is social security, there isn't anything your creditors can do to collect from you anyway, so you could (if that's accurate) just do nothing. I suggest you schedule a consultation with an experienced bankruptcy attorney in your area.  If you are in Los Angeles, Orange or Santa Barbara, Ventura, or San Luis Obispo County, I can help.

When filing for bankruptcy if you have a car that you own but are still paying payments on, will they reposes the car?

Unless you reaffirm the loan or pay it off, they have the right to repossess your vehicle. Pay and retain is no longer a legal option, unless the creditor agrees to it in writing.

What will happen if I co-signed for a private student loan and this person then filed chapter 13?

It's called the "codebtor stay". Creditors can't collect from or even contact cosigners while the debtor is in Chapter 13.
