If you have leased a vehicle in Santa Monica or Beverly Hills, most manufacturers will require an end of lease inspection between 60 and 90 days before you return the vehicle to a dealership. Can you return a leased car without an inspection? It really depends on the automaker. Even if it is not required, we recommend still having your vehicle inspected, as it can help save you money by empowering you with a condition report of your vehicle at lease end. You can potentially avoid frivolous charges for excess wear and tear on the vehicle. What does a pre-lease return inspection involve? We have provided an end of lease inspection checklist in the guide below.
As mentioned above, an end of lease inspection may or may not be required by the automaker, but we always recommend having one done for added peace of mind. According to Cartelligent, here are the manufacturers that require a pre-lease return inspection.
With Genesis, Hyundai, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lexus, Mazda, Subaru, and Toyota, lease inspections are optional. Kia currently does not offer lease inspections.
While pre-lease return inspection checklists will vary by manufacturer or service center, below you will find a general end of lease inspection checklist.
