What to Expect During Your Auto Lease

Once you drive off the lot in your leased vehicle, it's important to understand a few key responsibilities that come with your agreement. Leasing is designed to be simple and stress-free, but there are still a few important rules and guidelines that help protect you, and the car, throughout the term of your lease. Being informed early ensures you can enjoy your vehicle without any unexpected surprises down the road.
Here's what to keep in mind while you're leasing:
  • Mileage Restrictions: Your lease will include a set number of miles you're allowed to drive each year. Staying within this limit helps you avoid extra charges at the end of the lease term. If you anticipate driving more, let us know - we can often build a higher mileage limit into your lease up front.
  • Routine Maintenance: Just like any car owner, you'll need to keep up with regular maintenance like oil changes, tire rotations, and inspections. Maintaining your vehicle properly not only keeps it running its best but also helps you avoid potential fees when returning it.
  • Vehicle Alterations: Your leased vehicle needs to be returned in its original condition, aside from normal wear and tear. If you're thinking about modifications like new wheels, a lift kit, or custom decals, be sure to check with our team first to understand what's allowed under your lease terms.
  • Breaking a Lease Early: Life happens, but if you need to end your lease early, it's important to understand the financial implications. Ending a lease prematurely can involve early termination fees or remaining balance payments. If you find yourself in that situation, talk to us first, we may be able to offer solutions like lease transfers or upgrades that minimize costs.
By staying aware of these details, you'll set yourself up for a smooth, worry-free leasing experience and an easy transition into your next vehicle when the time comes.
