Extending Your Lease: How Much Longer Could You Keep Your Car?

As a lease term draws to a close, some people find that keeping their vehicle just a little longer would be beneficial. In the final 30 days before your lease ends, you can request to extend your lease term for up to five months. If you exceed this extension limit, you could incur additional end-of-lease fees.

How To Create a Stress-Free End-of-Lease Experience

If you've never brought back a leased car before, you might not be familiar with the process. Here's an outline of how to prepare and what will happen during your lease return appointment near Fox Lake, IL.

Preparing for the End-of-Lease Process

Condition Report

Before turning in your daily driver, you'll need to schedule an end-of-lease inspection at our dealership. We recommend booking this appointment about 50 days prior to the end of your term. A third-party inspection company will evaluate your vehicle, assess its wear and use, and create a condition report.

Excess Wear and Use Statement

Approximately two or three weeks after your inspection and condition report is complete, you should receive another document, this time by mail: an excess wear and use statement. It will detail a repair estimate for the items noted in your condition report.

End-of-Lease Bill

Your condition report and excess wear and use statement explain how much your vehicle's repairs will cost. This repair total will be included on your end-of-lease bill, along with mileage and dealer disposition fees.

Wear and Use Waiver

Lessees are responsible for paying for those repairs unless the current lease includes a $1,000 wear and use waiver and it covers the fee listed on the excess wear and use statement. If you have no waiver, or if the $1,000 will not cover the fee, consider repairing these items prior to the lease's end.

Important Note: If you opt to get the vehicle repaired personally, please contact our Honda finance department so we can verify the vehicle work and apply credits to your end-of-lease bill.

Personal Items

Finally, take any remaining personal belongings from the automobile before turning it in. We also ask that you leave the owner's manual in the glove box and return all sets of keys.

During Your End-of-Lease Appointment

Final Payment

You'll make your final lease payment one month prior to the end date of your lease. Please keep the following in mind:

• No fees or payment is due on the day of your lease return.
• Recurring payments can now be stopped to avoid overpayment.
• If you have already made overpayments, please provide your contact information to Muller Honda of Gurnee so we can process your refund.

Odometer Statement

Our lease return center staff will provide you with an end-of-lease odometer statement. Please sign and return this statement to verify your vehicle's mileage.

License Plates

To finalize your lease return, we may also ask you to remove your vehicle's license plate and return it to your local motor vehicle department.

All About Early Lease Termination: Will You Be Penalized?

Some drivers want to end their leases ahead of schedule – maybe an upcoming vacation conflicts with their return date, or maybe they're just excited to get behind the wheel of something new. However, a lease is a contract between a driver and a dealership, and if this contract is broken early, lease termination fees will likely be incurred. You can avoid lease termination penalties by bringing your leased model back no sooner than 31 days before the end of your term.
