At lease end, you return the vehicle. Your responsibility depends on the lease terms: you typically cover excess mileage (if you drive over the agreed limit), any excess wear and tear beyond normal use, and possibly a disposition fee. If you stay within your mileage and keep the car in good condition, your costs are minimal.

Lease terms spell out all these details upfront, so there are no surprises. Our Finance Department reviews every detail with you before you sign, making sure you understand what you're committing to.
