How Do You Return A Lease?

When your lease is getting close to its end, you'll begin to receive reminders that it's time to consider your end-of-lease options. You'll then need to start the end-of-lease process. 

Approaching the End of the Lease

• Review End-Of-Lease Options
• Pre-Inspection - A couple months before your turn-in date, you'll need to have your Subaru inspected for excess wear and tear. This free inspection is used to determine if there are any added wear and tear items that need to be fixed before the lease is returned.
• Excess Wear and Use Statement - In about two or three weeks before your turn-in date, you'll receive an Excess Wear and Use Statement that provides estimates for any issues that need to be repaired. Fixing any problems will help lower your wear and tear fees.

Before Turning in Your Vehicle

• Schedule Your Lease Return - Make sure that the turn-in date fulfills your contractual obligations to avoid early turn-in fees.
• Contact DMV About Registration Requirements
• Prepare Your Vehicle - Remove your personal items, find all sets of keys, clear digital information, make sure every leased item is in the vehicle (like owner's manual, spare tires, etc.)
