Can I End My Lease Early?

While it’s not encouraged, you can end your lease early if you decide it’s the best option for you. Your lease agreement likely includes instructions for how to end your lease early, but the team at our dealership can also help you with this process.

Can I Transfer My Lease?

Often, drivers who choose to end their lease early will consider transferring their lease. This means that someone else will take over the remainder of your lease. If you know someone that would like to take over your lease, contact our finance center and they can help you set up a lease transfer.

What Happens If I Exceed My Mileage Allowance?

Most—if not all—leases include a mileage allowance. This is an agreement for a maximum number of miles you expect to drive each year of your lease. If you went over this mileage limit, then there may be a fee. This will be assessed when you return your vehicle. However, if you decide to purchase your vehicle, then these fees will likely be waived.

How Many Miles do I Have in My Lease?

Your lease agreement will tell you your mileage allowance. If you’re not sure, you can contact your dealership and ask.

I’m At The End Of My Lease And Don’t Want To Return My Vehicle. What Options Do I Have?

If you love your vehicle, then you don’t need to return it at the end of your lease. You always have the option to purchase it and drive it home to keep. Our finance center will help you determine the loan terms that fit your needs, so you can buy out your lease with a plan that works for you.
