Steps for Returning a Leased Car

Returning your leased vehicle starts with bringing the vehicle to our dealership in Wall. You can even return a lease to Automotive Avenues if you leased your vehiclefrom another dealership in our Wall area.

See how the lease return process goes here:

1. Bring your vehicle to our dealership.
2. One of our specialists will inspect the vehicle for damage, overall quality, and other aspects.
3. Any miles on the odometer that exceed the restrictions, or any wear and tear without getting regular maintenance, are subject to penalty fees for violating the lease restrictions.
4. Once the inspection process of your vehicle is complete, you can upgrade to a newer model for a new lease provided you fulfill the obligations of the previous lease.
5. Another option is to buy out your current leased vehicle with a lump sum payment or an auto loan.
6. A third option is to purchase one of our sedans, SUVs, or trucks that meets your needs.

Returning a Leased Car Early

Can you return a leased car early? In general, yes, you can return a leased car early. You’ll be responsible for paying off the owed amount, including any penalty fees and other fees for ending your contract early. The good news is that you won’t have a monthly lease payment on the vehicle you just returned when returning a leased car early.

You can still upgrade to a newer model with another lease if you want. However, it’s imperative that fulfill your obligations on the previous lease first. Otherwise, getting a subsequent lease will be more difficult.
