Tips for returning your Toyota lease!
Clean it up! Remember to remove all of your belongings from the glove
compartments, center console, back seat and trunk. Consider cleaning up
the interior of your Toyota lease near Charlotte as well as the exterior. The
cleaner your car is, the more it suggests you took good care of it while it
was yours.
Take a closer look! Inspect your car for minor wear and tear on the seats,
dash or on the exterior paint. Excessive wear and tear could result in extra
charges when returning your car.
Have it fixed up! If upon further personal inspection, you find excessive
wear and tear we suggest having it repaired or fixed before returning it to
our Toyota of N Charlotte dealership. This way, you can save money on any
additional charges due to damages.
Peek at the odometer! Look at the mileage on your N Charlotte Toyota
lease and verify it is not over the amount of miles allowed on your leasing
contract. Based on the amount of miles allowed per year, you should have
a total amount of miles you should be under at the end of your leasing
agreement. If you haven’t gone over, but are close, consider leaving your
car parked until the end of your lease.
What to expect when bringing back your N Charlotte Toyota!
After owning a car for a couple of years, minor wear and tear and small damages
are expected. For these, there is no need to worry because you will not be
charged for them. For example, you will not be penalized for scratches or dings
that are less than 2 inches.
5. On the other hand, there are charges you could face. For extensive damage or for
violating the leasing agreement, you could have to pay additional fees. Things you
could be charged for include:
Missing keys or parts
Extensive interior wear or damage
Scratches and dings greater larger than 2 inches
