Lease Return Optioins

Chevrolet Lease Returns

As your lease term comes to an end, you have several important decisions to make. Whether you want to upgrade to a new Chevrolet, keep your current vehicle, or return the lease, we're here to help guide you through the process.

Option 1: Trade-in for a New Chevrolet

At the end of your lease, you have the opportunity to trade in your current vehicle and upgrade to one of the latest Chevrolet models. This ensures a smooth transition into a brand-new car.

Advantages of Leasing Again:

• Newest Models: Drive the latest vehicles with cutting-edge features.
• Maintenance Savings: Leases often come with maintenance coverage, reducing your costs.
• Possibly Lower Payments: Depending on the offer, your new lease payments could be similar to or lower than your current ones.

Option 2: Purchase Your Leased Vehicle

If you've come to appreciate your current vehicle, buying it outright might be the best option.

Key Considerations for a Buyout:

• Assess Vehicle Condition: Evaluate any wear and tear or repair needs.
• Research Market Value: To understand your vehicle's resale potential, check the market value.
• Review Financial Details: Compare the total cost of ownership, including monthly payments and depreciation, with the buyout price.

Option 3: Returning Your Lease

The return process is simple and easy if you're ready to move on from your current vehicle.

Pre-Return Inspection:

• When to Schedule: Set up an inspection a few weeks before your lease term ends.
• What Happens: A representative will check your vehicle for damage and excessive wear.
• What to Expect: Your vehicle's condition will be compared to the terms of your lease agreement.

Finalizing the Return and Possible Charges:

• Bring your lease agreement, vehicle keys, and any necessary accessories when returning your car.
• Mileage Overages: You may face extra charges if you've driven beyond your mileage limit.
• Excess Wear: Damage exceeding normal wear and tear could incur additional fees.
• Disposition Fee: This fee helps cover administrative costs for processing the returned vehicle.

As the end of your lease approaches, take time to consider your options. Whether you want to upgrade to a new model, buy your current vehicle, or return it, we're here to guide you through the process.
