How To Save Money On Your Lease Return

Aol Autos says the top 7 ways to save on car leasing turn-in fees are:

1. Schedule the vehicle inspection to be conducted at your home or business while you are present, not at the dealership.

2. Repair damaged bumpers, broken windshields or bald tires. Otherwise, the lessor will do it for you, for a fee.

3. You may get a break on minor door dings, scratches and upholstery stains.

4. Make sure that your car has all the equipment it started out with.

6. Some lessors offer wear-and-tear insurance, but consider the price carefully.

7. Don’t exceed your annual mileage limits. The leasing company won’t cut you any slack.
