Returning a Leased Car Step by Step

Returning a leased car is as simple as dropping it off at Alexandria Volkswagen in Alexandria. You should know that you can still return your lease to Alexandria Volkswagen even if you leased your vehicle elsewhere at another Volkswagen dealership. Here’s how it’ll go down:

  1. You’ll drop your leased vehicle off at the dealership.
  2. It’ll be inspected for damage, overall quality, and other important factors.
  3. If you went over the mileage limit, you’ll be assessed penalty fees. This also applies with excess wear and tear.
  4. Once the inspection process is complete, you can upgrade to a newer model for a new lease, buy out your leased vehicle, or walk away and upgrade to another model in our selection.

Can you return a leased car early? Most leasing companies offer this option to Springfield drivers. If you return your lease early, you’ll still have to pay off the remaining amount, including penalty fees and other fees. At this point, you won’t be responsible for monthly lease payments, but you’ll have the option of upgrading to a newer lease model.
