Many Keyes Lexus shoppers are returning to our dealership at the end of their Lexus lease and wondering about the next steps. One of the most frequently asked questions is whether one must return their vehicle to the dealership from which it was leased. Since some variables are in play, let’s take a moment to make sense of your options.

All About Ending Your Lexus Lease

Lexus only requires the dealership that initiated your lease to accept the return. However, if you have moved since the lease inception, we also realize that this may not be practical. The best course of action is to contact the nearest Lexus dealership and explain your situation; in most cases, they will be happy to accommodate you.

What Do I Need to Do Before I Turn In a Leased Lexus Vehicle?

Before you bring your vehicle in, there are a few steps we suggest taking.

  • Ensure the vehicle is in good condition and necessary repairs have been made; take time to clean and inspect the interior so no valuables are left behind.
  • Check for excessive wear and tear; anything exceeding the terms of your lease agreement will incur a penalty, and you may find that repairs are less expensive.
  • Finally, check your mileage to assess if you will need to pay any excess mileage penalties; these usually cannot be waived, but we may have some flexibility if you’re leasing another Lexus model or buying out your lease.
