Items to Bring When Returning a Leased Car

When returning a leased car, the best way to streamline the process is to get everything in order before you drive up. That way, you don’t have to make any return trips to Johnsonburg or Kersey. Here are the basics of what you’ll need to bring:

• Vehicle inspection report
• Repair receipts
• Keys/spare keys
• Owner’s manual
• Maintenance records

If you forget something, like your vehicle inspection report or maintenance records, we’ll likely have that information on hand. But other items, like your keys, are essential. Don’t hesitate to contact us with any other questions about returning your leased car! 

Steps for Returning a Leased Car

Once you have all your items in hand, you have to drive up from Ridgway! Even if you leased a car at a different location, you can still return it to Spitzer GMC St. Marys. Here are the steps you’ll need to take:

• Visit our dealership in Saint Marys during regular business hours.
• Our specialists will inspect quality, condition, and other factors.
• We’ll check your odometer to verify your mileage. Excessive mileage or wear and tear will result in penalty fees.
• Once the inspection is done, you’re free to move forward. You can leave the dealership but have other options, like choosing a new car or buying out your old lease.

Can You Return a Leased Car Early?

Can you return a leased car early? The answer is usually yes, but contacting your leasing company to double-check is a good idea. When returning a leased car early, you’ll still need to pay off your owed amount and any remaining penalties. But you won’t be responsible for your monthly lease payments anymore, and you’ll typically have the same end-of-lease options. We recommend consulting our finance department for advice if you pursue this path.
